Butterfly Costume

Popeye & Olive Oil

What you need


  • 2 large sheets of cardboard
  • mixed paint colors
  • small paint brush
  • black marker
  • The most important thing is the wings. You will have to make the wings from cardboard. Draw a wing pattern on newspaper before you start cutting. You will have to adjust the size and shape of the wings to fit. When you are satisfied with the way the wings look you can cut the cardboard wings out. You should now color the wings. Outline the wings with a black marker and then fill in the center with yellows and golds. If you like, you can use spray glue, then sprinkle glitter over the areas where you sprayed the glue. Or you may want to use a tube of glue and just put the glitter around the boarder. Attach the wings to your dress with staples that can be removed later. Be sure to have the pointed parts of the staples away from you facing out.
