An Easter Craft a Day: #2

Yesterday Sugarplum made coffee filter butterflies.  This craft is so easy, it’s ridiculous!

Supplies needed: Coffee filter, watercolors, pipecleaner, clothespin.

I only have cone shaped coffee filters so I cut the crimped part off and tore it down the fold to make 2 pieces.  Sugarplum painted the filters and clothespins with watercolor paints.

When they were dry, we folded (or scrunched, you’re choice!) the filters down the middle and clipped with the clothespin.  round the ends of the pipecleaner and clip in the clothespin (I had to wrap it around the back to make it stay).

And Voila: easy peasy butterflies!
