Butterfly Wreath Project


This beautiful butterfly wreath (made by Mali Chi) is coming to us from Simply Handmade magazine!

Wreath is 14" across. 
Wreath: Craft supply
Cardstock: Neenah Paper
Hot glue gun: Surebonder

1. Cut a sheet of heavy cream cardstock into 3" trips and hot glue them around the sides of a foam wreath. Overlap the strips so that the entire wreath is covered.
2. Create hundreds of butterflies from the same heavy cream cardstock. You can punch them out, die cut them, or print sheets of butterflies and hand cut them.
3. Bend back the wings of the butterflies and hot glue them to the wreath. Cover the front and sides with folded butterflies.
4. Glue flattened butterflies to the back of the wreath for consistency.
5. Hang your wreath up and enjoy!
