Description
Transform ordinary coffee filters into delightful and colorful butterfly decorations through a simple and joyful crafting process.
Ingredients
- Coffee filters (white or natural)
- Markers or washable inks (bright colors)
- Spray bottle with water (optional)
- Pipe cleaners (for the butterfly antennae)
- Glue (glue stick or craft glue)
- Scissors (for shaping)
- Small sequins or glitter (optional)
Instructions
- Start by laying out a coffee filter on your workspace. This will be your canvas.
- Take your markers and begin to color the filter, creating free-flowing patterns.
- If you’d like a watercolor effect, lightly mist the filter with water.
- Once satisfied with your design, let the filter dry completely.
- Once dry, pinch the center of the filter and gather it to form the butterfly shape.
- Cut a piece of pipe cleaner—about six inches long—and wrap it around the pinch.
- Optional: Glue on small sequins or sprinkle glitter for sparkle.
- Display your butterflies by hanging them or attaching them to a wall.
Notes
These butterflies can be used as home decorations, bookmarks, or gifts. Store them in a flat container to prevent damage.
