Folded Paper Butterfly Craft

Materials you will need:
Colored Copy Paper
Pipe Cleaners

How to make Folded Paper Butterfly Craft:

1. You could use colored copy paper like I did or upcycle some of your kids artwork or even use some pretty patterned paper too. Just take 2 squares of paper, one about an inch larger than the other.
2. Fold them in half along the diagonal, then continue folding them accordion style across the remainder of the square.
3. Then all you have to do is twist a pipe cleaner around the middle of the 2 folded squares to secure them together.
4. Then pull the folds open a bit, to resemble butterfly wings. Twist the end of the pipe cleaner to form the ends of the antannae.
