Make a cookie cutter using only a sheet of aluminum foil and some
tape! No need for other items like copper wire or aluminum pie pans.
This article is for lazy and somewhat creative people who don't want
to leave home and yet still want to make cute gingerbread men.
If you don't have any foil, your neighbor probably will. Tell them
it's for a cookie cutter (and those cookies you're going to make with
it!) and you'll make a new friend.
!! Steps !!
* Store brand aluminum foil Tear out a sheet of aluminum
foil.
* Lay it out sideways Lay the sheet out so that the
longest side is horizontal.
* Foldy, foldy, foldy Fold up 1/2 inch (1.27cm) to 1 inch
(2.5cm) section.
* Strip o' foil Continue to fold over until you have a
long strip of rather sturdy foil. Making it this thick will help
it keep its shape.
* I wonder what it will be Fold the strip into whatever
shape you desire. A longer sheet of foil will mean more strip to
work with. Experiment with creasing the foil in different
directions to find out different ways to create shapes.
* Perfect for making little men in all of your food When
you have reached your desired shape, tape the ends together with
whatever kind of sticky (adhesive) tape you have laying around.
Just make sure it's clean. Try regular transparent sticky tape.

stability, attaching a piece of foil strip across the top of the
shape helps. The image shows "real" cookie cutters - notice how
some have stability strips or handles.
* Making a really big cookie cutter? (Awesome!) Tape multiple strips
together.
