Ashley from Lil Blue Boo made these beautiful, flowy butterfly wings for her daughter, and she shares a tutorial showing how she did it. They’re actually just a couple of x-large t-shirts sewn into a long-sleeved cape and stenciled with a butterfly wing design. For a full butterfly costume, just add antennae and matching leggings and t-shirt.

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!
It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.
Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
What age is your daughter, mine is turning 5 in 13 days and Wana make this for her and not sure what size shirt to use thank u
