Instructions
Step 1
Fill a clay pot with a floral sponge. Cut strips of 2 * 12 cm from red and green paper with polka dots. Connect them in four, fastening them with green wire, insert into a sponge.
Step 2
It will take about 13 bunches to completely decorate the floral sponge with them.
Step 3
For butterfly wings, prepare strips of crepe paper 10 * 25 cm turquoise, hot pink (4 pieces of each color). Make double corrugated tubes out of them.
Step 4
First, put the strip in front of you with the long side facing you, mark by folding the middle line. Place the skewer on the edge of the strip and start winding the paper.
Step 5
Twist tightly, pulling evenly to the marked center line. On the opposite side of the workpiece, roll the paper onto the second skewer. When winding, hold the diametrical "tube" with your hands.
Step 6
Next, grasp the extreme end of the double "roll" with your fingers and begin to squeeze the paper with small movements until it is all crimped on the skewers.
Step 7
This should be done in small sections, gradually rearranging the fingers from left to right to the middle, then from right to left. When the tubes are compressed, carefully remove the skewers from them.
Step 8
Then make an additional 2.5 cm disk from the turquoise corrugated tube, greasing it on one side with glue and rolling it in a circle.
Step 9
Start shaping the wings by rolling the turquoise drop-shaped blank and glue it with gnarled glue to the middle disc. Attach a bright pink double corrugated tube on top, secure with glue.
Step 10
In order to make the two smaller wings, shorten the corrugated tubes by 2.5 cm. Having collected the butterfly, use glue to fasten all the wings together: 2 large ones on top, and 2 smaller ones below.
Step 11
Make decorative ornaments from chenille wire: 4 "drops" of pink color, 4 - light blue, depict antennae from light orange chenille. Attach them to the corrugated body.
Step 12
First, try on it along the length of the butterfly's body, stretching it slightly to the required length. Grease the inside of the tube with glue and press firmly against the base. Decorate the butterfly with rhinestones by gluing them with tweezers.
