Butterfly stencils for decoration

What if the design of the room is tired, and there is no money or forces on repair? The fastest and most expensive way is to change textiles and decor elements. And far from the whole decor you need to buy. For example, bring the element of lightness to help butterflies for decor. Of them make panels, wall compositions. Larger and bright "live" on curtains or colors.

What makes

Butterflies on the walls are made from different materials, sometimes even exotic. This choice depends on the sighting type of the decor. While there is no experience and you are not very imperative to end the final result, you can make several different decorative butterflies for the sample. They can be attached to the location of the planned decor. It will be easier to evaluate the effect and choose the most appropriate option.

Transform the room can be quite a bit of money.

Paper

Butterflies for decoration made of paper make easier and cheap all. There are several different techniques. If the product is flat and its wall / panel is glued entirely, only the facial surface is important. If a bulk composition is assumed, the paper should be bilateral - both sides must be painted, because white often "exhaust" spoils the impression.

From ordinary double-sided colored paper

Instead of ordinary colored paper, you can take corrugated. The effect will be different - it is lighter, air, translucent, it is easy to make decor with butterflies volumetric.

Butterflies for decoration of corrugated paper are obtained by air and light

You can make butterflies from the old magazine, newspapers, cards, colored napkins, wallpaper of suitable colors, any other printed products.

Even from the old magazine it turns out very well

As you can see, only paper variants. If we consider that they can still be slightly tinted, combine, make multi-layered, it is clear that the scope for fantasy is huge ...

Cardboard

Cardboard use not very big density. It is rather very dense paper. It also has color and bilateral. With it, it is more likely to make a bulk decor - it can be bought on the housing relative to the case easily. This material is even better keeping the form. It is only worth remembering that corrugated wings will no longer do - too hard material so that you can make a small fold.

On the cardboard patterns look clearer

Also from the cardboard it is easier to make openwork butterflies. Having a sufficiently sharp knife is cut off "unnecessary" leaving only partitions. Such decorations require adhesion, large patience and accuracy.

Make a template for which then make the same in the size of the winged insects

More cardboard is used to make the "mass" patterns of the same butterflies. With the help of such stencils, you can make the same type and size of insects and spend at least a time.

the cloth

Having a template can make butterflies for decoration on a wall or lamp chandelier chandeliers. Fabrics will need to give additional rigidity, and in the rest of the process is not much different: the contour is applied, cuts out, if necessary, decorates and attached to the wall.

The easiest version of butterflies of fabric

It is more difficult to work with a cloth, although very interesting decorative crafts are obtained. This is an option for more advanced decorators and skills to work with a needle or sewing machine. With their help you can recreate streaks on the wings.

Exotic materials

Old vinyl records will also become excellent raw materials for the manufacture of decor from butterflies. Since vinyl is hard to cut the butterfly from it, you will have to warm it in the oven. And in order not to spoil the baking sheet, it must be displayed with foil.

Butterflies for decoration of vinyl records

The contour is applied to vinyl with the help of chalk, the plate is placed in a heated oven, as soon as it starts soften, removed, cut the scissors quickly. Often to warm "workpiece" falls several times. After cut out, we last the last time and give the desired shape.

From beer cans or any other relatively soft tin, excellent flying beauties are also obtained. First you need to cut off the bottom and the lid and align the piece of tin. Then, with the help of sewing to transfer the contours from the template to tin, connect them to the marker and cut down the resulting circuit.

For "Butterfly" wall decor, you can use even beer banks

You can decorate the rear - brilliant part. This will require markers or markers, you can try to decorate nail polish. The painted handsome men give the desired form. One nuance: the edges are obtained very sharp, it is necessary to work carefully, otherwise cuts not to avoid.

How to make contour butterflies from paper

We begin with the most simple, but spectacular - contour butterflies. Need to need colored paper or magazine pages, contour maps, etc. You can use old postcards or color cardboard. We also need an ordinary cardboard - to cut the template.

These are contour butterflies for the decor - to do them simply, and they look wonderful

Cooking template

We take a piece of cardboard - any, you can even pack some kind of packaging (tea, dry breakfasts, cereals, etc.) The main thing that the cardboard is dense and not cellular. Find a silhouette of a butterfly that you like, carry it into cardboard and cut out. Several silhouettes are in the photo gallery. They can be printed, then cut and transfer to cardboard.

Moth walls - in color it will be not bad

If you speak well scissors, you can try such a contour

The more bends, the harder cut

Mahaon is attractive with his "tail", but the paper consumption is more and working requires greater accuracy.

This more similar to the night moth, but it looks good too.

Decorative butterflies can be drawn by itself, you can find an image in any book

Paper butterflies templates for interior decoration make half. The second turns out "automatically" after the folded twice by a piece of paper

Another version of Mahaon for cutting out of paper

Several tips for working with templates. Many butterflies are given with two wings, but it is better to cut one wing - exactly it will be symmetrically.

The decorations from the winged insects of different sizes look well. Because the same circuit can be increased, reduce using the simplest functions of graphic editors - the same Paint, which is in any computer. Since in this case only the contour is important, the quality of the pattern is not so important, so experiment with dimensions boldly. The printed pattern cut out, apply to the cardboard and circle. We cut the rigid working pattern with which you can make dozens of identical elements.

How to make a contour paper butterfly

We take a sheet of paper, fold it in half, apply the pattern, circle. On the applied line cut out. Next, we flexion the wings from the "Corps", we get a working blank. Cutting some of the amount of butterflies, fastened to the selected place - on the wall, a piece of cardboard, etc.

It is possible to mount on ordinary glue (PVA is usually the best option), small strips of double-sided glue. You can use wallpaper glue, etc. If there are doubts as a result, stock sewing pins. They can be attached to the wall several times without much risk damage the surface. When you place all butterflies and the result will suit you, you can glue or use tape.

Openwork

A little more difficult thing about openwork butterflies. They are made of paper or cardboard. It is important to have a good sharp knife and a template with lines deposited on it, for which it will be necessary to cut over the paper. Immediately it is worth saying that this is painstaking work.

For those who own a knife well and has a solid hand

Stencil for cutting openwork butterflies of paper

You can use dense paper or thin cardboard

Not the most difficult option, but it will look excellent

Thin work

This pattern for cutting is more like a moth

Packed for cutting paper butterflies

The process is the same as described above: prepare a template, then the desired number of items are cut on it. The peculiarity is that it is first cut out and remove small fragments, and then cut out the contour from the piece of paper. With such a sequence of actions, less chances to break thin jumpers, and it is so easier to work.

How to make an openwork paper butterfly - the process in pictures

It is necessary to work with a knife with a thin and sharp blade. It is better not on the table, but by laying something quite solid - you can piece of plywood, chipboard, plastic, etc. But it should be understood that the grooves and cuts will remain on the surface, so this piece to use for some other purposes will be problematic.

Multilayer volumetric

In the manufacture of multilayer volumetric butterflies, several pieces of one form (size and color may differ). They are folded alone on the other, glue the "body", and the wings are rejected at different angles. So it turns out such butterflies more voluminous.

Examples of multi-layer paper butterflies

You can make a combination of openwork and contour butterflies. Take paper contrasting colors or find one color, but different shades. Make butterfly from them one form. Only some will be with an openwork, others - without. Complete them by laying down a fragment without a pattern. It turns out an interesting effect.

Combine can and so

There is a technique that allows you to immediately cut the bulk butterflies from paper. You will need two rectangles from paper - more (for large wings) and smaller. They are folded diagonally times, then the second. It turned out two triangles of different sizes. Now, from two opposite sides, bend the paper inside so that it is such a triangle as on the third photo (with a newspaper).

Volumetric paper butterflies for decoration

On the resulting triangles draw wings. In large mines can only be located on the edge, in smaller - throughout the area. Cut the blanks and put one to another, glue. We glue the cutted separate "Taurus" with the mustache cut separately. Due to the fact that the paper is folded and the wings are obtained double, products have a larger volume.

Corrugated paper

With corrugated paper, work is easier and butterflies for the decor are obtained more air and lungs, since the paper is translucent. We select suitable colors, take threads, scissors, glue. Nothing is required. From the paper cut the rectangles about 7 * 10 cm.

All that is needed to make decorative butterflies from corrugated paper

The resulting rectangles in the middle we flash with a needle with a thread, tighten, make a couple of revolutions thread. It turns out something resembling a bow. It is folded in half, straighten with your fingers, trying to leave as few folds as possible - form wings.

Manufacturing process

When the result satisfies you, we take the scissors, cut off the edge of the lane in several millimeters - on the mustache. On the rest, we form a pattering edge that resembles a butterfly wing.

Simply and easily

Strips of the mustache fingers twist into thin tubes. Now they definitely resemble the mustache. The wings are deployed and finally straighten. It turned out light butterflies.

From folded paper

From two-sided colored paper or old magazines, you can make paper butterflies for the decor, folding them into a small harmonic. Cut the two square or rhombus of paper (one slightly more, the second is slightly less), we put them in a small "harmonic", starting from one of the corners. The smaller the fold is, the more interesting it is a product.

How to make paper butterflies for wall decor

Two folded rhombus fold one with another, we are tied by in the middle a thread or flexible wire in the shell of suitable color. From the remnants of the wire, we make a mustache, the wings straighten, if you wish, correct the form.

Photo for inspiration

To start a little about how and what can be attached to the already made paper butterflies. The easiest way is to wall or panel with glue. The second is no less simple way - on bilateral scotch. But that the decoration was more voluminous, it is best to glue not straight to the wall, but on a small piece of foam rubber. It turns out a more aircraft composition, with clear shadows.

If you attach a butterfly to a piece of foam rubber, the decor will be even more voluminous

Use paper butterflies to create volumetric decorative compositions on small hoops with a fishing line tied to them. Carved paper insects are fixed on the fishing line. They will not hang them on the wall, but they look very original, although it is more complicated to create such a composition than on the wall.
