What makes these fluttery butterflies so vibrant? Magazine photos!
What you'll need
- Colorful magazine pages
- Pipe cleaners
How to make it
For each butterfly, choose 2 colorful magazine pages. Cut out 2 squares, one 5 inches on a side, the other 4.
Starting at one corner, accordion-fold the squares on their diagonals; our folds were 1/4 inch each.
Pinch the center of each folded square. Bend a 12-inch pipe cleaner in half and create a small loop. Arrange the squares in a butterfly shape and center them inside the pipe cleaner.
To secure the wings, twist the pipe cleaner above and below the wings and curl the ends for antennae.
