A Christmas gift that came all the way from Australia for Marisol was the Butterfly Hair Clips Kit by Faber-Castell. I think you all know of my love for craft kits, so this was a fabulous gift and one that I knew Marisol would love to do.
Thankfully I had a project on hand for Flynn to do too. An unfinished jigsaw puzzle. If you haven't seen these at Michael's craft stores, they are only a dollar or two (I honestly can't remember exactly how much having bought it a long time ago) but great to have on hand for a rainy day activity.
Crafts in progress
To get rid of the big globs of paint on each of the jigsaw puzzle pieces, I had Flynn turn them upside down and use them as stamps on the paper. He loved this and I think it created a pretty great color effect on each piece, as you will see below.

How great craft project!
Beautiful butterflies!
I really love the Flynn’s project.
I look for that at Michael’s but I didn’t find it really. Could you tell me the link?
Thanks!
Hi Imma, unfortunately there is no link to purchasing the jigsaw puzzle on-line that I’ve found. Maybe contact your local store to see if they will be stocking them in the future or if they can order them in.
Wow, you never cease to amaze me with your creativity!! I love, love, love the butterfly clips. When Isabella is a little older we will have to make them too.
Love it! And, as a mother of a girl, those butterfly clips are to die for.
Hello,
This is such a fun project!
