Butterflies all around

I have been away for a long while from Blogland. I was a bit busy (my usual excuse!). I had my family visiting, travelling down to Kerala, and some very tiring days. Finally I am back on track now. Meanwhile, in the few moments I could make fruitful, I made some things.

A butterfly mobile had been on mind since years. But I never actually made one until two weeks back. Take a look at it.

It may not be a very beautiful work of art, I agree. But I am very pleased with my effort. I used all scrap and coloured packaging papers I could find and made it. The effort to cut out each butterfly with the details was painful, but fruitful in the end :-) Then I wished, if I had a cricut cutter.

It didn't take me very long to finish this mobile. It was pretty quick and easy, apart from the cutting part :-D

Now it is hung up right in our living room and is beautiful when it turns and twists around!
