B is for Bubble Wrap Butterfly Bags


Materials Needed: 
 3 inch by 3 inch piece of bubble wrap
Pre-made canvas bag large enough to hold books
packaging or scotch tape
butterfly stencil
fabric paint

Directions:
Copy butterfly stencil below. Cut at dotted line.
Slightly bend the paper in the middle of the butterfly to
start a cut with your scissors, then carefully cut out the
butterfly, keeping the square around it intact. This will be your stencil.
Securely tape stencil to the bag.
Dip bubble wrap into paint then softly tap it with paint onto the stencil. The less paint you use, the more textured and patterned your butterfly will be. 

Allow paint to thoroughly dry then head off to the library to fill up your bags with stories about butterflies.
