Here is an easy paper craft that you will want to teach everyone to do, and you will also make about 40 of them and you will also squeal in delight when you see how awesome they are, and then you will pin and tweet and Facebook the hell outta this post for me. Right? Right.
One day, Cats Eat Dogs (Clare) sent me a little link that showed me how to make these thingies, and the only way I can describe them is: life changing.

Now just when you thought these were cool all on their own, you can also write secret messages in them. I came up with some ideas for you.
