How to Make 🦋 Butterflies :) 💖

We all love butterflies 🦋 and I have been trying to find a way to do it and with Valentine’s Day coming up I set out to find a way 💖

Time: 10 Minutes Cost: $0 Difficulty: Easy

• 

ao all we need is a price of paper 15cm x15 cm

• 

We start with folding in half one way and then folding in half the other way , then corner to diagonally corner then you push sides in to form a triangle pic below

• 

Here is the triangle you should now have

• 

Draw a arch and but off this will form the top of the wings

• 

now fold down one of the pieces and press firmly

• 

now fold down the other side also pressing firmly along all egdes

• 

Now u can use a pencil out line around the esge adding patterns just like a real butterfly has you can go over this later if your happy with what you have with a ink pen or you can colour in if you like don’t be afraid to add colour we all love the beauty. And colours and the more realistic this will become

• 

Turn it over and the little bit that is left will make the final fold and it be the head as you pull it to fold it over you will notice the butterfly bend but that is good as it will give it a 3D look then turn it back over and press its wings together and once you release they wings reopen but with more dimention

• 

Now time to put your butterflies to good use would look amazing on a little girls room wall

• 

Here is one using coloured paper

• 

And I also made this paper flower to sit mine on and to give to hubby for our 10th valentines together

• 

I will make anyoehr post with how to make a flower in the near future
