NICE jewelry Bobbi
kd, an idea for making a cool butterfly is to stuff a black sock with that cotton wool stuffing, then use black hairbands to divide up the body segments. Stiff felt, painted and glittered, makes good wings and black crafters "pipecleaners" work for the proboscis, legs and antennae. Those little black fluffy craft eyes glued together make awesome compound eyes and one blob on the end of each antenna
can you tell we did one of those for a school project

The teacher asked tokeep it as a classroom display so I dont have any pics, but it was real easy to make.
The stuffed sock thing is a good base for most insect creations too...eg caterpillars, bees, ladybugs etc
aaaaaah, i have the urge to make something and instead I gotta work at this 'puter all day
