Tangled Thread - Tips, Trick and Tutorials in Sewing & Stitching

butterfly thank yous

I wanted to pop one more wedding post in (I promise you’ll get a tutorial… and maybe even a contest next week!) while I still can :-)

If you look closely at the photo, you’ll see tiny little paper origami butterflies hanging from the arbor:

We needed approximately 1500 butterflies folded, by hand, for all the decorations.  I did as many as I could - but it wasn’t nearly enough.  Two wonderful ladies stepped in and folded more than a thousand butterflies for my hubby & I!  Karen & Louise did an amazing job and I am so grateful to them both for all their hard work :-)   Can you guys give my moms a round of applause for me?
