Beaded Butterfly Art

April 18, 2016 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

Lorelai and I were fortunate enough to have some time to do arts and crafts this weekend. When I asked her what she wanted to make, she quickly said, “Butterfly Art!” So butterfly art we made. =) This project is so simple and straightforward. We used neon pony beads and popsicle sticks (scoop kind), as […]

Footprint Butterfly Craft

September 1, 2015 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

Materials: Cardstock (2), Tempera Paint, Marker, Glue, Scissors. Footprint crafts are a good route to go with babies and small toddlers. They are for sure a lot easier than handprint crafts! While big sister was painting a craft a while back, I sat the baby down in her bumbo, painted her feet, and pressed it […]

Laminate Butterfly Craft

October 20, 2014 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

We are always looking for fun ways to use the craft supplies we have. Our friends at CraftProjectIdeas.com sent us a goodie box with crafty stuff recently and we’ve been having fun coming up with crafts with the materials. The “scoop” craft sticks, fuzzy sticks (pipe cleaners), glitter glue, and gems, and magnets that we […]

July 16, 2014 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

Last year, we went on a realistic butterfly kick and made the following crafts: Blue Morpho | Tiger Swallowtail | Monarch | Painted Lady. Since it had been so long since our last, I decided to make a few more templates, this being one of them. Buckeye Butterflies are very beautiful, with large circular spots […]

Printable Blue Morpho Butterfly Craft

July 8, 2013 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

The blue morpho butterfly has been on our to-make craft list for ages. Lorelai and I both were excited to get to craft this one a couple of weeks ago. I designed it as I have my other realistic butterfly crafts – I made the black parts on the wings solid so that Lorelai (and […]

Printable Craft: Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly

June 12, 2013 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

Tiger Swallowtail Butterflies are everywhere right now in Maryland. They are such beautiful butterflies that I had to make another printable butterfly craft. Lorelai loved it! She painted hers with a fine paintbrush and then gave it to her Gammie when it was finished. Some other butterfly posts & crafts: Monarch Butterfly, Painted Lady Butterfly, […]

Cupcake Liner Butterfly Craft

May 23, 2013 by Kimberly 6 Comments

I’m proud to announce that this craft was 100% thought up by Lorelai, my butterfly-obsessed, five-year-old daughter. The other day, when we were waiting for the Coffee Filter Butterfly to dry, she ran inside to the craft cabinet, dug around for a minute, and came back for the materials for this one. She proudly showed […]

Printable Craft: Painted Lady Butterfly

May 10, 2013 by Kimberly 4 Comments

As we learned while crafting the monarch butterfly, the painted lady also migrates to Mexico for the winter. We have had a lot of interaction with painted lady butterflies as of late. Lorelai’s teacher brought in caterpillars and the class got to watch them go from caterpillar, to chrysalis, to butterfly. The children’s librarian at […]

Printable Mason Jar Craft w/ Fingerprint Bugs

May 5, 2013 by Kimberly 9 Comments

First, a huge thanks to Jordan for suggesting this craft on our Facebook Page a couple of weeks ago. It’s the perfect little project for the upcoming summer season!

Printable Monarch Butterfly Craft

April 22, 2013 by Kimberly 7 Comments

Each year, millions of monarch butterflies migrate south to Mexico for the winter. Like with birds, these butterflies prefer warmer weather, and will stay to enjoy the mild climate for a few months until they make their way back north. After learning that (and explaining how like birds these butterflies are), Lorelai painted, cut out, […]

Printable Giant Butterfly Craft

Butterflies, butterflies, giant butterflies! =) I’ve been wanting to do this craft for weeks, and I finally got around to making it last night. Lorelai was thrilled to wake up to the sheets sitting on the kitchen table this morning. Yes, I said ‘sheets’… four, to be exact. It’s worth it, though! This giant butterfly […]

Paper Roll Butterfly Craft

July 27, 2012 by Kimberly 2 Comments

  This craft was planned by Lorelai herself. The other day she asked to make a butterfly out of a toilet paper roll. I saved it for today since I knew it would go along well with the egg carton caterpillar that she crafted this morning. Having already used paint today, we went the construction […]

Fun Butterfly Craft

April 15, 2011 by Kimberly 2 Comments

My friend Carey sent me a picture of a butterfly craft that she and her daughter made from felt. I thought it was so cute, and since Lorelai is in love with butterflies, I put it on our craft list. Unfortunately, we didn’t have any felt on hand (all of my scraps are buried under […]
