Butterflies - wool butterfly craft


One of the crafts that we made to go with our butterfly theme are these gorgeous wool butterflies.
We followed MamaMoontime's tutorial and they take literally seconds to make!  They are simple enough for every age to try and turn out so pretty!


You just need a pipe cleaner and two different colours of wool roving. (and a bit of thread if you want to hang them)



We hung them in our new branch above the nature shelf but you could also:
~ tie them to a stick and let the kids fly them around the yard
~ mount one in a shadow box
~ tie one onto a gift
~ hang them in the window and let the light shine through them.

I'm sure your family will love making these as much as we did!
