Begin by placing generous dots of acrylic paint on one side of a sheet of white paper.
Next, fold the white paper in half, with the paint on the inside. Rub the paper with the edge of a large popsicle stick to squish the paint and spread it around.
While the paper is still folded, use scissors to trim it into half of a butterfly shape.
Unfold the paper to reveal your butterfly creation!
Allow the paint to dry completely, then glue a strip of black paper to the center of the butterfly for the body.
Glue a black pom pom to the top of the body as the head. Then, add two googly eyes. Cut two 1 inch pieces of black pipe cleaner and glue them on the back of the pom pom as the antenna.
