2016 - Year of the Fire Monkey is just a few weeks from now. And we thought we would start the year crafting with a party favor for your CNY celebrations! A monkey is known to be witty and intelligent. They are youthful and playful thus it is a JOY to watch them. So we thought making this fun glasses will be perfect to make anyone looking witty and intelligent at the same time fun and playful!
First of all download our template. Click on this link.
Print the template on any paper of your choice. Since it is year of the Fire Monkey and red is often the favorite color for Chinese New Year celebrations we made ours red. The 2016 with the monkey image we did it in gold for good luck and more wealth! You can reprint this on a yellow or gold paper. Simply cut the glasses out. Take your glue and glue the side frames to the front frame. And this is how simple it is. For the text on the frame take a marker and color it in.
Tip: I think most of us know how to use the simple tools of photoshop, you can fill up our template with the colors you like and print it in a color!
How easy is that! Or better yet don't ask how - just monkey see, monkey do.
Materials needed:
1) print out of our 2016 Monkey glasses template (option to fill color with photoshop)
2) board paper bond size - red color and yellow color
3) colored markers

5) knife blade / scissors
