Summer Butterflies

Looking for a butterfly craft? Use our butterfly printables to make mobiles, decorate a summer window, or just for coloring!

This photo of our butterfly craft comes from www.woodwench.co.uk and www.muddlepuddle.co.uk - thank you!

Mobile:
Each printable comes with two sides so that you can colour each side and then glue them back to back to make a mobile which can swirl in the wind! When you glue them together, sandwich a length of cotton or fishing line between the two sides and then attach the other end to a coat hanger or short garden cane.

If you access to a laminating machine, you could laminate each butterfly. Punch a hole and attach the cotton when laminated. The butterflies look gorgeous strung from a low branch of a tree in the garden!

Decorate a summer window:
String the butterflies from a curtain rail, or use small pieces of sticky-tape to attach to the top frame of the window.
