Old Coffee Filters turned Butterfly Art

In the last year or so, Daddy-O has taken up drinking coffee. We 
dusted off the coffee pot, that was hiding way up in the cabinet, and 
only used once or twice a year when Nana Kim came to visit, and put 
it to use for a few weeks. Then, our new found coffee drinker decided he
was in need of a Keurig. 

Since the Keurig has replaced the old pot system on our counter, 
these filters have been stashed in our cabinet. Then, it hit me...
ART...BUTTERFLIES...FUN!!!

All you need is old coffee filters, watercolor paints, 
and black pipe cleaners. 


 Spread the coffee filter out on a plate or newspaper. 

Open the watercolors up, and hand the brush to your little darling.



 Let your kidlet do what their magic!

Once the coffee filter dries, take the pipe cleaner, fold it in half 
around the coffee filter and twist. Presto, a new butterfly is born!
