Coffee Filter Butterfly

One of my daughters absolutely loves butterflies. She can sit in our back yard and stare at them all day long. A few years back, she let a few loose in our house! She told me they were her friends and she wanted them to come in and play. That’s when I found this adorable little butterfly coffee filter craft for her to do. This way she could alway have butterflies in the house… the kind you want to have in your house. Today, we decided to make a few to hang up in her room.

MATERIALS

Coffe filter

Markers

Pipette

Water

HOW TO

Flatten out your coffee filter and draw any design you would like with your markers.

Using your pipette, drip water all over your coffee filter.

Once your coffee filter is fully dry, scrunch it up in the middle and wrap a pipe cleaner around the center. Shape the ends of the pipe cleaner so it resembles and antenna.

My daughter choose to hang hers on her bunkbed so she can stare at them as she falls asleep. Where will your children put theirs? Comment down below.
