fold in half. fold a 6 in. pipecleaner in half and slip over body of butterfly, twist at top of body to secure & curl ends with crochet hook. Glue magnet or pin to back.

I add beads to mine. I glue beads at the tips of the pipecleaner, and a few beads to the body of the butterfly. They are so cute. I do them in thread also. They just come out a little smaller.
