Recycling Project: Coffee Filter Butterflies :)

A friend of mine had couple of boxes of old coffee filters that she wasn't using. So I thought maybe I can somehow incorporate them in our art projects. Here's one of  them that we did.

We used coffee filters, scissors, paint and wooden clothes pegs.

I've cut the rough side of the filter first, then cut the other side open.

We then painted them 

We used old wooden pegs as bodies

With a peg on

Cut antennae out of another filter, pegged them and voila!

We are using them as a dining room decoration :D

Memories of Summer: Day in the Forest

Seems that not that long ago the summer was here and we enjoyed all the goodness of it :) 

This was just one of those warm days, so we decided to go for a picnic in the forest. Still remember taste of wild raspberries and the smell of pine trees and grasses... :)
