I did just the butterflys for a baby shower for one of my best friends. I had seen them at conference and knew that I had to do them! Everyone oohed and awed over them. I served them on the three tiered stand...They looked beautiful!!
 
Thanks,
Those are so cute. I am using them for my Grandparents Day celebration for my second grade class. We are working on a unit on insects.
 
Hey Fellow 2nd grade teacher! I never thought of doing those with my class. My son made them last night to enter in the State Fair in the Jr. candy category. I'll let you know if they are award winning or not!
