Top Tip
You could give the butterfly multicoloured wings by using a different coloured doily for each wing.
How to Make



- Take a doily and fold it in half, with the coloured side facing outwards. Fold it in half again, and then one more time after that to create one butterfly wing.
- Repeat step 1 three more times to create all four butterfly wings.
- Use the glue gun, or PVA glue, to stick the wings to the back of the wooden peg. Wait for the glue to dry before continuing.
- Take a yellow pipe cleaner and trim two pieces about 1.5 inches long, and curl one end of each over slightly. Glue these to the top of the peg.
- Stick two small wiggle eyes to the front of the top of the peg, and use a black pen to draw a mouth underneath them.
- Cover the rest of the front of the peg in multicoloured self-adhesive gems.
- Trim a piece of magnetic tape about an inch long. Turn the butterfly upside down and stick the magnet to the back of the peg.
