Kids Craft – Cork Butterflies

April 26, 2018 by Shellie Wilson

This fun kids craft is easy to make. It uses corks and basic craft supplies to make adorable little butterflies that can be used as little trinkets or pop a magnet on the back.

Supplies

  • Wine Corks
  • Foam Glittery Hearts (Dollar Tree)
  • Pipe Cleaners
  • Super Glue
  • Scissors
  • Googly Eyes

Instructions

  1. Take two larger foam hearts & two smaller foam hearts and glue the small hearts onto the larger heart with your super glue to make decorative butterfly wings.

Once your hearts have dried, it’s time to glue your hearts onto your wine cork to make those butterfly wings part of your Wine Cork Butterfly.

Next, take your googly eyes and glue them onto your wine cork. I suggest placing them at the end with the corkscrew hole.

While you’re waiting for your wine cork butterfly to dry, take your pipe cleaners and cut them into butterfly antennas.

 

Once your wine cork butterfly has finished drying, take your pipe cleaners and stick them into the cork. If you make the head of the butterfly at the end you inserted your wine corkscrew into the cork, you should have a little hole to stick your pipe cleaners into easily. If not, stick a needle into the cork to make a hole.

And just like that, you have cute and adorable DIY Wine Cork Butterflies!
