Make your own fairy wings

Nature is so beautiful, it's hard not to imagine fairies floating about just out of our eyesight behind bushes and flowers. You can transform yourself into a fairy with some cardboard, scissors, tape and string.
1. Gather together your supplies. And you will probably need an adult to help you with cutting the cardboard. Also don't forget markers, colored paper, glitter or even feathers (if you have them) to decorate your wings.
2. Trace out a wing design on the cardboard and use the scissors to cut out the wings. Make sure you make two! You can make your wings look like butterflies or angel wings or make your own design.
3. Put the wings together and tape them using packing tape, or duct tape will work great too. Poke holes in the wings and loop some string through so you can fit the wings on your body.
4. The hard part is done! Now you can decorate! You can decorate your wings with anything. Maybe find some leaves and make yourself a tree fairy. Don't forget the wand!
