Spring Craft: Clothespin Butterfly Magnets

Will has been a crafting machine lately. Every afternoon this week he has spent the majority of Jack's naptime making a craft of somesort. These turned out so cute I just had to share!

Supplies:
Clothespins
Paints
Coffee Filters
Pipe Cleaners
Beads
Spray Bottle
Hot Glue Gun
Magnets

It's a super simple craft but the results are too adorable. Follow Will's demo pics to see how we did it ;)

First, paint the clothespins and set aside to dry. Next, dot paints all over the coffee filters. I love Will's two hand approach here :) Then, spray the coffee filters with water so that the colors start to blend and then hang to dry. Once dry, scrunch up the filters to make "wings" and pinch on the clothespins. String two beads onto the pipe-cleaner and fold the ends over. Use hot glue to attach the pipe-cleaner antennas and a magnet on back! Ta-da! Adorable Spring butterfly magnets to brighten up your day!
