Butterfly Finger Corsage


My son's school is having a party on the last the of school and I was helping him with the Christmas Goodies for his classmates, which will be shown in the next post. My daughter saw it and wanted to be Santa's little elf. *wink*

Anyway, I immediately went to create and print out a smaller butterfly template so she could have fun too and not disrupt our 'project'. I meant for her to wear the craft on her finger or wrist but she preferred to have it on her hair instead. It does look nice too! My son saw the end result and wanted one too!


Materials needed:
  • Paper (I used 160gsm paper)
  • Pipe cleaner (longer if you want to wear it on the wrist)
  • Stickers or Colouring Medium to decorate
How to do it:
  1. Print the butterfly template on the paper.
  2. Have an older child or adult cut out the shape.
  3. Decorate the cut-out butterfly with stickers or colour it.
  4. Have an adult poke 2 holes with a pin on the paper for the pipe cleaner.
  5. Use the pipe cleaner to go through the holes.
  6. Wear the butterfly by securing the pipe cleaner around your finger or wrist.
