Paint Chip Butterfly Lantern

Ah, how I love paint chips. All of the beautiful colors in so many shades, who can resist? Today, I took my passion for these wonderful home store finds and turned them into butterflies that I then glued onto a paper lantern.

All that is needed to complete this project is paint chips in the desired colors, a paper lantern, and a butterfly paper punch and/or butterfly template (there is a great template here on the Martha Stewart site - just fold the paint chips in half, trace, and cut).

Cut or punch out the butterflies from the paint chips. Then, using a gel glue, glue the butterflies to the lantern in a random pattern.

Enjoy.
