DIY Butterfly Wall Decor


This DIY requires things which are easily accessible. All you need is:
  • Cardstock (hard form of paper) or chartpaper or else a simple paper. However remember to double the simple paper in order to give it a sound base. 
  • Stationery (Pencil, eraser, scissors, etc.)
  • Tape: Removable tape is preferred. However, normal or double tape will also work.
NOTE: The quantity of paper is proportionate to the number of the number of butterflies you want to make and its size.

STEPS:
  1. Arrange for a butterfly skin. You can either print it out or else make one on a simple sheet.Make sure that the skin is of the required size.
  2. Fold the sheet as well as the paper or cardstock symmetrically. Placing the skin on the paper, trace its outline. Do it for as many butterflies as you want.
  3. Cut the paper according to the outline. 
  4. Place the butterflies on the wall.
  5. Apply tape on the middle part of the butterflies only and stick the butterflies on the wall.
  6. Lift the outer edges of the butterflies to give it a 3 D look.
And now YOUR BUTTERFLIES ARE READY TO FLY!

Enhancing options: You can take butterflies of different colors and sizes, shade them, etc.
