How to complete this tutorial step by step?
Materials
To make beautiful fireflies, you will need:
- colored plastic eggs (nesting)
- square rhinestone stickers
- eye stickers
- colored caterpillars
- tracing paper
- a black marker
- a pair of scissors
- LED candles
- adhesive dots
Step 1
Stick square gem stickers on the bottom part of the plastic egg.
Tip: Open the egg so that children can more easily distinguish the joint between the two parts.
Step 2
Stick 2 adhesive eyes on the upper part of the egg.
Step 3
Draw a nice smile with a permanent marker.
Step 4
Fold a sheet of tracing paper in half and then draw the wings of the firefly (starting from the folded edge).
Cut the wings along the outline.
Note: Folding the sheet in half will ensure that the wings are symmetrical.
Step 5
Cut the wings in half at the fold and glue them on either side of the egg using adhesive dots.
Step 6
Open the egg and pass a colored caterpillar through the two holes located at the top.
Step 7
Cut the excess pipe cleaner and then twist the ends to create the firefly's antennae.
Step 8
Place a powerful LED candle inside the firefly.
Note: We preferred to use our powerful LED candles instead of standard LED candles because they elegantly showcase the colors of the plastic eggs.
