Creative Kickstarts: Butterfly Apples
Using apples to make an apple print is a standard art project. Did you know you could get a butterfly design from an apple?
Cut an apple in half, from the top stem to the bottom. This creates the butterfly shape. Pour some paint on a paper plate. Dip the cut side of the apple into the paint and then press on paper. As soon as the paint dries, use markers to add antenna, eyes and a few spots. Different color paints produce multi-colored butterflies.
Adapt this project by using fabric paint and creating butterflies on T-shirts.
