  Step 1

  Begin by protecting your work area with newspaper or a table cover.

• 

  Step 2

  Have your child paint several pieces of bow-tie pasta, front and back, with different colors of acrylic paint.

• 

  Step 3

  Allow to dry before flipping over to paint the other sides.

• 

  Step 4

  While bow-tie pasta pieces are drying, they can decorate and paint the Popsicle sticks that will act as the bookmark itself.

• 

  Step 5

  Once pasta is completely dry on both sides, use a small piece of pipe cleaner (about 2 inches) and wrap around the center. Twist pieces at the top until secure.

• 

  Step 6

  The excess will be the butterfly’s antennas. If too long, give them a quick snip with the scissors!

• 

  Step 7

  Use a hot glue gun to attach the pasta butterflies to the top of the Popsicle sticks.

• 

  Step 8

  Slip a butterfly bookmark into your child's favorite book!
