Create this easy felt butterfly mask for a pretty dress-up accessory. No sewing is required.
Time: 10 minutes plus drying time
Age: Any age
Level: Easy
Materials
Several different colours of felt
Cut out a butterfly shape from one colour of felt. A pair of kids sunglasses can help you to judge the right size.
Cut eye holes in the mask.
Cut a butterfly body and other symmetrical shapes out of contrasting colours of felt.
Stick on using PVA glue. If it doesn't stick well first time, try peeling off, letting the first layer of glue dry and then gluing a second time. This gives a good surface on both layers of felt for the glue to bond properly.
Decoration stuck on with glue
When dry, make a hole in each side of the mask using a skewer.
Make a hole in each side
Tie a length elastic into each hole and trim.
Your mask is now ready to wear!
