It’s the season when our plans shift to wide open spaces and the great outdoors! I just love CAMPING! Pack up the kids, the tents, chairs, granola bars… Camera, inner tube and….
The BUG spray!
Ohhhhh, dear! Be very afraid!
Just kidding ~ this lil’ guy won’t hurt you…
He’s made from the VERY best stuff – BUTTONS! … And google-eyes!
And some wire… brads, and a LOT of FUN!
The STING of adorableness – and a plethora of creative possibility!
You won’t need your bug spray or a “no fly zone” when these easy vellum wings are created with a craft punch and a little glue!
An old hunk of wood and a little acrylic paint was all that was needed to capture these winged friends… I can’t tell if this sign will keep away the BUGS or unwanted solicitors, but either way, it’s going to accompany me to my favorite camping destination this summer!
Button bugs have plenty of personality and little annoyance factor!
Here’s hoping your summer is off to a splendid start, with few of the REAL little buggers, but PLENTY of buttons and fabulous summer craft time! Enjoy!
