Wrap blank artist canvases in colorful butterfly fabric. For an easy and inexpensive way to showcase butterfly motifs in a room, take a fabric remnant, and attach it to any size art canvas using a staple gun. Choose colors that coordinate with the entire decorating scheme of the space for a designer look and feel. Group several odd numbers of canvases on a large wall, or choose a focal point fabric, and display it on a large canvas for optimal visual appeal to complement any style decor.
Display colorful faux butterflies in a simple shadowbox for a wall decor piece with a natural aesthetic. Butterflies are inherently pretty and visually complex, which makes them the ideal item to showcase in a wooden shadowbox. Adhere faux butterflies with colorful patterns to the inside of a shadowbox using a small dab of hot glue. Position the insects in rows for a display with an elegant design, and hang the DIY butterfly art piece on a wall to accessorize the home with wall decor that is naturally appealing.
Use a scrapbook butterfly-shaped craft punch to create a myriad of butterfly shapes. By simply punching out scrapbook paper butterflies and adhering them to a large, white double picture matte, you can make a gorgeous piece of art. Experiment with different placement of the butterflies for an artistic design, and give the art a dimensional appearance by adhering the butterfly pieces with adhesive dots, which affix the paper slightly above the matte surface. Finish off the art with a picture frame without the glass for a cute butterfly wall decor piece with whimsy.
Create a moss wreath using butterflies as a theme. Wreaths are often favorite wall decor items for homeowners who want a simple way to accessorize their homes. Making a butterfly-encrusted wreath is fairly simple by covering a craft-store grapevine wreath with green, dried moss. Using a glue gun makes the application easy for skilled crafters or beginning novices. When the wreath is complete with moss, glue faux craft butterflies over the front of the piece in a random fashion for a butterfly wall decor that accents any decorating scheme.
