Butterfly Art Supply Holder

It is important as creatives to be very organized. We don't want to use crayons today and next time we need it we start looking for it. Keeping our materials in place well arranged is the best and also helps stimulate our interest in creating the more.

So, we are creating a butterfly art kits holder. This holder can carry your wax crayons, pencils, rulers, scissors etc.

STEP 2: Color the butterflies

STEP 3: Apply glue at the back head part of the butterfly

STEP 4: Cut tiny strips of black card and roll one end to use for the antenna

STEP 5: Glue to the butterfly

STEP 6: Glue the wiggly eyes for the eyes to make it look more interesting or cut a tiny circle from a black card and a slightly bigger circle from a white card. Then glue the tiny black on the bigger white to create the eyes if you do not have wiggly eyes.

STEP 7: Crease the lines on the template of the holder and fold (creasing can be done using cover of a pen, a broken pencil, a fork or any dull pointed object)

STEP 8: Apply glue on the flaps, allow to dry a bit then glue together and glue the holder to the base.

STEP 9: It's time to glue the butterflies. Check the spots to glue the butterflies to, mark on the back of the butterflies and apply the glue.

STEP 10: Glue the butterflies to the holder on the front and back and leave to dry

STEP 11: Design the left and right space with elements that has to do with a butterfly e.g. flowers.
