My Butterflies

Here are my two favorite monarch butterflies.  So excited to go trick-or-treating!  We went to my parents for Halloween this year, the girls were thrilled because they got to go with their cousins.

I had fun making these costumes.  I bought the orange and black wings at Jo-Ann Fabrics and added my own white dots at the edges.  We also used black leotards that I trimmed with little black feather boas at the neckline and around their wrists.  I made Kayla a tutu with some bright orange fabric and netting.  Haley preferred a black ballet tutu that she had.

For their headbands, I re-purposed some old headbands from a birthday party.  I added some butterflies from Michaels and some wired crystals for sparkle.  I used some of the leftover black feather boa to top off their antenna.
