- Purple pipe cleaner (or whatever color matches your foam paper).
- Scissors
- Concrete glue
- Chopstick or any wooden stick you have
- glue sticks and glue gun
Step 2: Cut several pieces of green strips. The thickness of each strip approximately 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch wide and the length of the foam paper.
Step 3: Tightly roll three small circles from the green strip and one slightly bigger circle. The three rolls would be the body and the slightly bigger one is the head.
Step 4: Concrete glue all the four rolls side-by-side, with the slightly bigger roll at the end.
Step 5: Cut two strips of purple sponge paper (or any color you prefer) The same width as you cut the strips from the green foam paper. Approximately 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch wide.
Step 6: Tightly roll the end of the foam paper twice, and then make a large loop as seen in the photo.
Step 7: Concrete glue the big loop and the small tightly rolled side.
Step 8: After securing the first big loop, make another bigger loop over the big loop made in step 6. Concrete glue this, then make another piece of this. This will be the lower part of the wing.
Step 9: Cut two strips of pink foam paper (or any color you choose) the same width as you cut the other strips. Approximately 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch wide
Step 10: Repeat the same steps from the purple loops of the lower wing, but this time, for this pink strip, make a bigger loop. This will be the upper wing. Create two and secure the loops using concrete glue.
Step 11: Glue the lower and the upper wing together finishing the butterfly wings.
Step 12: Then glue the wings on both sides of the body of your butterfly.
Step 13: Get your purple pipe cleaner (or any color you choose) and cut two pieces of at least 3-inch antenna. Slightly loop one end of each.
Step 14: Glue both antennas on the head of the butterfly fairy wand.
Step 15: Hot glue the chopstick to the bottom end of the body.
