How to fold paper butterflies

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.

  2. 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
