Origami Butterfly

This is a fun and creative paper craft project for children and will keep them busy for a little while if the weather is too hot to go outdoors or if it is rainy. Children can create a whole window full of butterflies to decorate their rooms or they can even make a butterfly mobile by hanging butterflies onto different lengths of string and hanging the strings then onto a stick or loop. It is also fun to experiment with the colors to create many unique looking butterflies. The rainbow paper is excellent because of the various color schemes.

For this project you will need:

- rainbow colored transparent paper or vellum paper
- matching rainbow colored cardstock
- red scrap paper
- black marker
- scissors
- circle motif punch if desired (to punch out nose)
