I make spring-like butterflies? To make butterflies, two differently coloured chenille wires are bent in the middle and then twisted together twice. The upper ends are twisted into feelers. If necessary, shorten the two lower ends a little bit - the wire body is ready. For the butterfly body cut out the template and glue it together. Clothes pegs are glued to the back of the wings, these are later used to easily attach the butterflies to ribbons, flower arrangements or similar. The wire body is glued to the wings and the lower ends are wound into small wire circles. A few Wobbly eyes are attached to the Chenille wire . The butterfly can now be decorated individually, e.g. with small dots or other lovely details.

The basket is decorated with the flowers and filled with decorative grass. How are chickens and chicks made? The first step is to transfer the pattern to Coloured paper and glue it together. For the legs Satin ribbon is cut to size and fixed on the back with Handicraft glue . The ends of the satin ribbon cuts are decorated with a Pearl as foot. To do this, simply attach a knot under Pearl . glue Wobbly eyes and Feathers and punch a hole through the top of the head with a punch. A hanging ribbon can be attached here. How do you make the flower? The pattern is transferred and cut out. The large flower is the actual flower, the small flower should be made in green Coloured paper . Then the Paper is folded accordingly. The small flower is now placed over the large flower and a hole is punched in the middle of the superimposed flowers. Green Chenille wire is threaded through the hole. At the inner end of the Chenille wire Satin ribbon is knotted and at each end a Pearl is pulled up and fixed with a knot. Above the flower, another Chenille wire can be formed into leaves. How are the paper balls made? To make the paper balls, Coloured paper is cut into 1.5 cm wide strips on the long side. The Paper strips are now punched at the ends and in the middle Now double Satin ribbon and thread a Pearl at each end and fix it with a knot. Then make a knot in Ribbon in the desired length (about 10 - 20 cm above the ends with Pearl) and thread the strips in the middle hole and fix them with a knot. About 10 cm above that the strips are threaded into the outer holes and fixed with knots above. The Paper strips have to be straightened a little bit to get a nice Paper-egg How do you make the flower tendril from Felt? bring Chenille wire in green to the desired length and, if necessary, twist two strands together.
