How to make a Peace Teller (Peace Fortune Teller)

At the Peace Booth, your Peace Teller is already cut into a square, so you can skip the
first two steps:

At home:

1. Print page two, which contains the Peace Teller


2. Cut out the main square and recycle the trimmed pieces. This
will leave a square like you see on the left.

To fold the Peace Teller:

1. Lay the square Peace Teller on a table, with the printed side face
down

2. Fold the bottom right corner (along the diagonal) to the top left, then
unfold the sheet. Next, fold the bottom left up to the top right (along
the other diagonal), then unfold again, leaving a square with two
diagonal (corner to corner) creases, as on the left.

3. Fold each corner of the paper into the center


along the lines, forming a diamond with numbers 1
through 8 in the corners, as shown to the right.

4. Turn the paper over and you will see four creases.
Fold each corner of this diamond into the center,
along the lines that form the square in the middle. You should see
just the numbers 1 through 8, as seen to the left.

5. When you turn the paper over again, you will have
four squares (each with a diagonal crease that
meets at the center); see the image on the right.

6. Fold the bottom half backwards and up along the


center horizontal crease, as on the left. This
leaves four small pockets for your fingers.

7. Hold the paper and push the upper corners in inwards while
spreading the top center apart, forming a pocket. Insert your index
finger and thumb from each hand to work the Peace Teller.

You can make and decorate your own Peace Teller; just use this one as a guide. Note that the images at the corners are
the outside of the teller; the numbers are what you will see as you work the jaws or mouth of the teller back and forth;
the words will be hidden until you unfold them. Be creative and make your own Peace Teller from scratch with your own
words and images of peace!
