Steps To Make A Butterfly Chandelier
To make a beautiful butterfly chandelier, you are supposed to follow these steps.
Step 1: Begin by cutting out a million butterflies in whichever color you like depending on the size of your chandelier and the amount of filling you desire. Cut roughly 100 butterflies out of colorful paper to make it more attractive.

Step 2: Make a hoop out of your cardboard. Then, using a wire, build a criss-cross pattern. Make sure it’s secure and equally distributed.

Step 3: Initiate by working on the chandelier’s core. One end of your thread should be tied to it. The other is given to the butterfly. Leave the length connected to your spool rather than clipping it. Place a glue dot in the center of one of the butterflies, place it over your fishing line, and push the second butterfly on top.
Attach butterflies
Step 4: Continue connecting butterflies in the same manner as before, working from the inside out. The center of the cross wires was used first, followed by each corner where the wire was joined to the hoop, and then one or two strands in between each corner. Fill in as much or as little as you wish in your chandelier. And there you have it, your lovely chandelier.
