Hello there......
With the harsh winter forcing us to coop up in our houses, I guess the creative energy kinda takes
over.....That goes for me....hope it does for you too :)
Today I made this Butterfly Wall Hanging......
You must be thinking why I keep making butterflies all the time ???
Well, what can I say???.....Butterflies are one of my favorites!!!!

DIY Butterfly Wall Hanging

Anyhow, I used these wooden butterfly cut-outs.....You can find them easily
at any Craft store.......They were pretty smooth, so I didn't sand them.....
And also, I wanted that slightly grainy look on the butterfly's wings.......

Then, I painted a pair of blue butterflies, as shown below......
Yup, Blue is my favorite color......It is very dominant in most of my works......
When the butterflies were nice and dry, I assembled together the things that
I would require to make this Wall hanging.......
Shown in the picture are:
- Pair of Painted Blue Butterflies
- Medium and small circle mirrors
- Green Ribbon
- Key Ring and
- Glue gun
I used the glue gun to fix the butterflies, mirrors and the key ring on the ribbon......
The final assembly looked like this......
I thought it needed something more ......just a wee bit more, to make it perfect......
So, I used my favorite stuff....3D outliner (Puffy paint)........
I put tiny dots of blue along the edge of the mirrors......and that just did it!!!
Here's how the wall hanging looks on the wall, next to my 'Blossom Branch' Painting.....
