Butterfly

Materials: 

1 Popsicle stick

1 coffee filter

2 big pom poms

1 pipe cleaner

crayons

tape

glue

Colton made this cute butterfly at church the other day. I thought it was to cute to not share. By looking at the picture I would assume that you would be able to figure out how to make it. From what I can tell here are the directions.

1. Color the coffee filter.
2. Tape the coffee filter to the popsicle stick to look like a fan.
3. Glue the two pom pom on one end of the popsicle stick.
4.  Add the pipe cleaner to the other end to look like antlers.
5. Draw eyes on above the pipe cleaner.
