Magic Wallet DIY – you will need

  • Cardboard – 2 x 10cm x 7cm (basically a bit bigger than a credit or business card)
  • Paper – 4 strips of paper – 12cm x 1 cm wide
  • Tape
  • Pretty paper or more card to decorate

Note – you can also this magic wallet make these with ribbons, or made entirely out of duct tape – these are going to more durable than the paper and card ones, but the using paper strips instead of ribbons is MUCH easier and simpler!
