Butterflies

This was a different way of making some butterflies! This project was a 2 day one. The butterfly is made of coffee filters. I put glue in lines and swirls over their filter and let them sprinkle the different colors of glitter. Even though the glitter made a huge mess they had a blast doing it! When we finished the glitter, we had to wait a day for it to dry and they were all curious as to what it was going to make.

The next day, when everything was dried we pulled them back out. We pushed together the middle of the butterfly and they got to choose which color pipe cleaner they wanted to use. All you have to do is twist it around the center and curl the ends to make it like a butterfly. They thought it was neat that it was a different kind of butterfly. All their butterflies turned out different depending on the location of the glitter and the colors.
