You Will Need
-
Step 1Begin by protecting your work area with newspaper or a table cover.
-
Step 2Have your child paint several pieces of bow-tie pasta, front and back, with different colors of acrylic paint.
-
Step 3Allow to dry before flipping over to paint the other sides.
-
Step 4While bow-tie pasta pieces are drying, they can decorate and paint the Popsicle sticks that will act as the bookmark itself.
-
Step 5Once pasta is completely dry on both sides, use a small piece of pipe cleaner (about 2 inches) and wrap around the center. Twist pieces at the top until secure.
-
Step 6The excess will be the butterfly’s antennas. If too long, give them a quick snip with the scissors!
-
Step 7Use a hot glue gun to attach the pasta butterflies to the top of the Popsicle sticks.
-
Step 8Slip a butterfly bookmark into your child's favorite book!
