Make a Cabbage White .......
I think of every butterfly we make as a voice shouting out in support of libraries .....
 |
| personally I find cheap PVA and a brush easier than a glue stick |
 |
| Draw round template |
 |
| Cut out |
 |
| the creasing gives a delicate, veined effect |
 |
| I like to use wire for the butterfly body but you can just use a twist of tissue as below |
 |
| If you leave glue to dry on plastic (cling film is fine) you can peel it away once dry |
 |
| You don't have to paint markings but you can |
 |
| Scrunched up bits of tissue are useful for positioning drying butterfly wings |
 |
| Attach bottom wings to body |
 |
...then top
Leave to dry |
 |
| Antennae are optional .... Wire and paper both work |
