Making butterflies

Sometime ago… at the start of Spring I think…
we made some soft and pretty butterflies at playgroup {and then at home too} using beautiful wool roving
We arranged the roving before wrapping pipe cleaners around and twisting.
Dino Boy even made a butterfly that was just emerging from it’s chrysalis.
I’m not sure why I’ve taken so long to share this craft…
Actually, it might just be that this was one of those craftswhere I found myself taking over… just a bit too much.
Does that ever happen to you?

Happy crafting,

A backyard scavenger hunt

 

Dino Boy had a big idea recently…
He wanted to go on a….Scavenger Hunt!! 
{I’m not even sure where he got the idea} 
We took a colour approach first up…
…which was perfect for the end of Spring

 

 

It was lovely watching him flitting around the backyard…
exclaiming about different colours and what treasure he had found!
  

 

Even Wookie got in on the action…
excited by the searching and seeking behind things, under things and all around

 

 

And what lovely things they were!
Happily added to our nature table… or Dino Boy’s treasure collection *smile*


Happy days,
Kelly
