Butterfly Topiary and Egg

Create a magical Easter Springtime Tablescape using Martha Stewart butterfly punch, pretty papers, and paint chips from hardware store.

Materials:
Styrofoam 9"x4" cone, 4" egg
white pedestal (I used a vase)
Patterned papers: I used Melissa frances 5th Ave
Coordinating pearl-head streight pins 11/2 long, about 300
Tools:
small butterfly punch


Punch a pile of butterflies from paint chips and patterned papers-keep the piles separate.

Layer a paper butterfly over a paint chip butterfly, insert pin throgh center and into cone near bottom edge. Pinch top wings to add dimention.

Continue pinning pairs of butterflies to cone, mixing colors randomly and working from bottom to top.

Slightly twist wings to cover any gaps between butterlies.

Cover foam egg in the same way as cone.
