Put everything in place, put out a craft pad and put on a paint coat.
First you need the little white paper plate.
Fold the cardboard plate in half.
Knock the rupture and strip it.
Then you fold the plate apart again. Now place the break so that it points at you (see picture).
Now you cut the plate along the break.

Now paint the wing section on a cutting edge.
Then you put both plates on top of each other and cut both plates at the same time.
Tip: If the cutting is too heavy, then cut a plate and use it as a template for the second plate.
Thus, you may cut the halves individually.
Now lay the wings together with the curves inwards.
Now you can paint the wings with pens, water colors or finger colors. You can also glue them with paper snippets or try the following idea:
Pull a few snippets out of colorful crepe paper.
Now put the crepe paper snippets on the half of the plate.
Then you pint the snippets with water.
Wait for a moment until the moisture is absorbed. Then carefully remove the snippet. The colour of the crepe paper then remains on the plate.
Attention: This only works if the cardboard plate is not coated.
Repeats the process with different colored snippets.
Pull off each snippet individually.
Then put the cardboard plates to dry.
Then stick together the dried cardboard plates. To do this, put a piece on top of each other in the middle.
Uses a glue pen or the hot glue gun.
Press the two wings firmly on each other.
Now the body of the butterfly is missing.
For the body you prepare a pipe cleaner and pearls.
First put a pearl on the pipe cleaner and push it into the middle.
Then you bend the pipe cleaner in half. The pearl is in the kink.
The next beads are threaded through both pipe cleaner wires.
Push the beads to the first pearl.

The last pearl is a large pearl. It becomes the head of the butterfly.
Now you bend overstanding pipe cleaner wires a bit apart as a feeler.
You can leave the feelers like this or you turn them in. See for yourself what you like better.
You use a wooden stick or pen to turn it on. Then you wrap the pipe cleaner around the wooden stick.
Then you pull out the staff.
Travel as well with the second probe.
The butterfly body is ready.
Maybe you'll paint another face on the butterfly.
Now her body is glued to the wings in the middle.
The best way to do this is to use hot glue. Attention: Let an adult help you with this - burn risk!
The butterfly is ready.
This butterfly is a beautiful decoration or you make it to give away.
Have fun trying out.
