Would you like to try making a beautiful butterfly paper cutout? Butterflies are symmetrical, so you can simply fold origami or construction paper in half, sketch half of the butterfly’s body, and cut it out to easily create a cutout! Since there’s no complex snipping involved, it’s a great project for beginners.
As an extra touch, make two of the same piece, layer them, and secure them with double-sided tape to create a three-dimensional butterfly.
The fluttering effect gives it a more realistic look.

Make four identical pieces, flip one over to use as the base, and glue the remaining flowers on top—that’s it! You can create a variety of flowers by changing how you cut the petals, so give it a try.
You can also have fun customizing them by using double-sided origami paper or varying the size.
