Welcome to August

 

 

      Welcome readers to the August posts for Jolie's Reading Fun!  This month I am going to share good books for children on Butterflies and Bugs.  I am starting with a craft for girls.  I have pictures of the craft so girls can make these for their rooms.  I will just say that I really enjoyed making mine.  You could use it to hang up in your room or you could also use it as a mini bulletin board.

 

 

Step 1- Purchase a felt butterfly.  (I bought mine at Wal-Mart for $1.88.  They had all colors.)

 

 

Step 2-  Buy some craft jewels (Also bought these at Wal-Mart).  You could use anything you wanted to decorate it.  Glitter, jewels, stickers, pictures, etc. )

 

 

Step 3- Glue them on with Elmer's glue in any pattern you want.

 

 

Step 4- Uses Letter stickers to put their name on the butterfly.

 

Step 5- Let it dry and then hang it wherever you want.  Great small project and doesn't cost over $5.00.

 

Hope you enjoy crafting your Butterfly Bulletin or Name board.
