Butterfly Spreading Tutorials

Coming Soon:  Butterfly Spreading Kits

I'm working on putting together some DIY Butterfly Spreading Kits, so you can learn how to prepare and mount your own butterflies!  The kit will come with everything you need to do the things shown in this tutorial.  Check out the video now to get a preview of what you'll be doing, or see how I make butterflies for you!

Here is an addendum, where you can see the butterflies being spread from above.  Watch the first video first, for the narration.  Then, watch this one to solidify things.

New This Year: Holiday Ornaments!

Papilio ulysses (Blue Swallowtail)

 New for this year:  Holiday Ornaments!

I have been having lots of fun playing with all these butterfly wings, and am constantly thinking of new ways to use them.  I am really excited about introducing two new styles of ornaments this season.  This is just a sneak peek at one of the styles.  I love these silver snowflakes with a round opening that is perfect to show off the most beautiful of butterfly wings.  Look for them soon in several styles, and I'm always happy to customize them if you have a specific species or color you'd like to have on your tree!

Cairn's Birdwing (Ornithoptera priamus sp.)

Blue Morpho

I have created a new gallery-style piece with 22 different butterflies and moths; I love this look!  I'm kind of on a butterfly & moth kick right now, buying up tons of different species and playing around with them.  Lots of new species in here for me; I look forward to making more like this!
