9. Paper Butterfly

A paper butterfly is a beautiful quick craft that can be used for wall decor, cards, garlands, gift wrapping, or journals. You can cut a butterfly shape from folded paper so both sides are symmetrical, then decorate the wings with markers, dots, glitter, or layered paper pieces.

For a more dimensional look, gently fold the wings upward so the butterfly looks like it is flying.
