Easy Butterfly Origami

From the vivid Green Cairns birdwing to the striped Tiger Swallowtail and the Blood Red Glider, these beautiful butterflies feature a kaleidoscopic array of colors and patterns. Includes simple instructions for folding, and perforated pages for easy removal.
All of the origami patterns are designed to highlight the diversity of species, with accurate portrayals of variations in the insects' top and bottoms views. Each butterfly model is accompanied by fun facts about behavior and distribution.
