Butterfly Swap.

Butterfly in a box.

Remember when you were a kid, you'd catch bugs and put them in a jar? Well, this is a take on that.

She was based on Stef's favorite butterfly, colors and all. She was FBR'd and sealed. She has little barely there, simple metallic black butterflies painted about her body. Rerooted with Black Magick and hints of a blue. (Can't remember which, it was so long ago.) Her hair is curled and styled. Eyes repainted and sealed. Her wings, I did not make- I bought them off of E-bay. Though- they weren't butterfly wings- sparrow wings I believe. So I ended up taking them apart, cutting them up and putting them back together- so they fit her and looked like butterfly wings.

The box is just a simple jewelry box I got premade from the craft store. Based on a list of Stef's favorite flowers, I fixed up the inside of the box for "wildlife" to live. The flowers are all glued in place, also with "grass" as ground covered.

She does sit nicely in her box, but doesn't like the lid closed on her.
