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 |
