How to fold paper butterflies

January 8, 2015 by Stefanie Girard

Accordion-Butterfly-Party-Lanterns

When you pop on over to the blog Daily Fix you will be so surprised at how simple the pattern is that creates these darling folded butterflies. UPDATE: The link to this project doesn’t work but I found a new one at the blog DIY INSPIRED. The possibilities are endless as to what they could be used for. I would put them on gifts, a summer mobile and even if they were made from stabilized fabric – headbands and pins. They can be made with new or recycled paper or fabric.

    Hello, Your link to the paper butterfly instructions does not work. Actually it takes me to a site that is not even related to the topic. Could you please fix/amend the link and let me know when it is done? Thank you so much. Kathie
