This year our theme for our living room is Merry and Bright.... and I mean bright. We decided to do the bright colors this year and I must say I am loving it! We are doing butterfly and owl accents and while I was organizing my craft supplies I found these butterfly beads. I thought wow they would make pretty cool butterfly ornaments for the tree... and I was off making ornaments (AND NOT CLEANING! shhhhhh don't tell my husband) .......
It is super easy to make these kinds of ornaments and you can do it with the kids too...
All you need for this project is pipe cleaners and beads how simple is that!
You simply slide a bead on the pipe cleaner and bend the end of the pipecleaner over about half way up the bead.
Then you just continue to add the beads. I changed the direction of the wings with every bead.
When you get the the end you just bend the pipe cleaner over again and shape like a candy cane. It is as simple as that! They will look amazing with the Christmas tree lights twinkling.
