You can also cut out additional leavesand glue the ends together to make a leafy streamer.Hang one strand or many from the corners.
Use more construction paper or poster board inbright colors to create large butterfly shapes. Youcan start with a shape like a heart and fold it in the center to make butterfly wings.
