Summertime Project and Simple & Sweet Fridays #23

I wanted to do a simple project with butterflies.
 You can decorate birdcages, garden chairs and miniature gardens with the butterflies.
I bought the butterflies, floral wire and dowels at Michael's Craft Store.
\

Bend the wire all the way down the dowel.
Glue the butterfly with a glue gun on the end of the dowel.
Hope you have fun with this project!

Now on with the Party...

    I need to get a big project done and that is cleaning out all my stash's. I have decided I have entirely way to much stuff in my studio and house

    butterflies are always pretty anywhere. I like them in a flower pot , years ago there use to be these huge butterflies you could buy and hang on your house , i use to see them on different houses

    have a good week end if I don't have company I am going to box up a lot of small treasures to sell in my new etsy shop if I can figure out how to get it started LOL

    Sweet little butterflies!! Thanks much for hosting! Loved the chicken reminder.... I used to make this about 30 years ago and had forgotten all about it! Now I just need to wait for fall when I want to turn the oven on again. :)
