DRAGON FLY






Last month we went to my house for one of my relatives wedding.  After attending the marriage we went to nearby shop to buy some craft materials. Suddenly my eyes stuck on one big box. I saw different colors of beads in that box. Then I bought some of them and tried something new. One of my new works is THE DRAGON FLY………..

This one is a very simple one, everyone can try this………

For making this dragon fly we need some beads, golden wire and cutter.

First we have to make the body of the dragon fly by threading the black color beads (or any color) on the wire which is bending into half. We want different sizes of beads for this, larger one in the front and smaller ones in the back. After threading curl the tip of the wires.

Next are the wings. For this we have to thread 78 beads (48+30) on the wire. Shape the upper wings (24 beads each) and lower wings (15 beads each) by bending the wire.

Set the body on top of the wings and attach them by wrapping a wire around it. Carefully wrap the wire at the position between 2nd and 3rd bead.

PLEASE TRY IT .......................................

RECYCLED CRAFT- BUTTERFLY



This is a very easy craft. I have learned this from one of my
cousine sister when I was a kid. Materials used for this are very
 common and inexpensive.

Materials required:
            Soap cover, glue, scissor, stapler, color pen.
   
How to make:

Take the soap cover and separate the inner and outer covers.
Then cut the outer covering and make two squares, one is     bigger and other smaller.
Fold the squares zigzag from one corner to the opposite corner.
Now you will get the wings of butterfly. With the help of  the stapler attach the two wings.
Now we will make the body of the butterfly by cutting the inner covering.
You can draw the face and body of the fly and fix 2 antennae on its head by cutting the paper.  
Now your butterfly’s wings and body is ready. Fix the body on the centre of the wings using glue and allow it to dry.
Look, your beautiful Butterfly is ready……
