cootie catchers (here is a new one jenn!)

I am making cootie catchers to put in a bowl on the bar. It was in Martha ages ago (when I still bought bridal mags!). Remember these? They are like little origami toys that you put your fingers in , and the other person picks a number and then a color, and then there is a fortune under the flap? I remember how to MAKE them...I just don't remember what the format is. I think it's numbers and colors...then I want to put like 'dance with the bride', 'ask the person next to you their favorite movie', that kind of thing. Any input?

And here is the jar and sign:

PS: Someone on another board put funny directions inside like
-Yell 'she was mine first, you bastard'
-Ask each groomsman for the time
etc...
I didn't have the guts for this but I still think it was a cute idea.
