Colorful, elegant, fragile — fitting descriptions for butterfly wings. No wonder that children and women love using them as hair accessories: the vivid colors, the elegant design on wings and the seemingly fragile nature of butterflies aptly symbolize who they are.
Girls’ headbands or bows will look more lovely if butterfly wings on top of flowers are added, as though there is a small, pretty garden on top of a girl’s head. These butterflies, made from durable nylon, come in a variety of colors that will match perfectly a girl’s costume or simple white dress.
For a costume party, dress your little girl with her usual ballet suit, put on a purple tutu, get her a large butterfly wing for her back, and, as final touches, pick a wand with small purple butterfly wing and a headband with flowers and butterfly wings. She will look even more beautiful — like a little fairy from a secret, magical garden.
Butterfly wings as hair accessories are not limited to matching a girl’s dress or costume–a bride will look enchanting and elegant with butterfly wings on her veil. A white, nylon butterfly designed with stylish embroidery and shiny, white and silver sequins or beads of different shapes and sizes will turn a simple veil into a majestic one. Every bride should feel royal and grand on her wedding day; and with her princess-like dress and lovely accessories, she will feel like a little girl whose dream of getting swept off her feet by a handsome prince finally came true.

There’s nothing little girls love more than playing dress up, so when it’s time for your little one’s birthday, why not throw a ballerina party? This girl’s-only affair would require attendants dress up in tights, tutu skirts, ballet slippers and anything else with ruffles or frills.
Of course, there’s more to ballerina parties than tutu skirts. In fact, you’ll need to take a few things into consideration during the planning stage. For instance, when and where will the party take place? How many parents will be able to chaperone? How many children will be in attendance?
Once you’ve answered these vital questions, you can move onto some of the more fun aspects of party planning. For instance, consider the sort of decorations you’ll need to purchase or even make to give the party all of the tutu skirt frilliness it needs. Consider buying some pink tulle at a local craft store and hanging it up around the room or around the backyard. Buy plastic party cups in white, pink or black with party plates to match. And don’t forget the napkins! Little kids are messy, so have plenty for cleanup.
Consider the foods that will be served. If this is a birthday party, make sure the cake is completely decked out in the ballet theme. Other foods should just be simple and tailored for kids. Hamburgers and hot dogs always work.
Buy the tutu skirts, and decorate the area with tulle. The children can have fun dancing and twirling around feeling like little princesses.
In the end, have fun when planning a ballerina party and remember: your kids will have fun, no matter what!

With summer right around the corner, it’s understandable that you want to spruce up your garden. After all, if you’re going to be spending more time outdoors having barbecues or just lounging on the patio, you’ll need to add a few decorative touches to bring your backyard up to speed with your style.
To accomplish this, consider looking into butterfly decorations. First of all, what says summer better than butterfly-themed decorations like wind chimes, bird feeders or even thermometers? Second, butterfly decorations match the natural beauty of your backyard perfectly. You don’t want overpowering décor on your patio or deck; rather, you need something simple and subtle that harmonizes with the beauty of nature, not shouts it down.
Likewise, butterfly decorations can make you feel relaxed when you’re lounging outdoors. All you need to do is lay back on a chair and watch a hanging butterfly decoration spin around in the breeze. Your troubles will melt away and you’ll feel at peace. And honestly, in this day and age where everything is all rush, all the time, it’s good to put your feet up, take a load off and just take time to breathe once in a while.
You may also wish to consider using butterfly decorations in your garden. Wooden butterflies can add a sweet touch when placed in your flowerbeds. You may even be able to find a sign that keeps with the butterfly theme while making your garden all the more welcoming.
Whether you want to mellow out your backyard or add a touch of whimsy to your garden, butterfly decorations will meet your needs. It’s a simple addition, but it will make all the difference.

For little girls, there is nothing better than a fairy princess party—and that’s no surprise to their parents. When creating your own princess party, you can let your imagination run free.
Whether you are putting on the party or just taking your little princess to one, her costume is very important. Nothing will help her “become” a fairy princess better than having just the right costume, and the best ones have butterfly wings.
These beautiful gossamer wings come in an array of sizes, shapes, and colors and the difficult part will be picking just one. After she puts on her special princess costume, she will feel like a princess in no time, and will be ready for the party to begin.
To get the girls into the theme and set the mood for the party is to watch a fairy or princess movie. The great thing about having your own party is that you can choose your own movies. You could go with Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, or any one of the variations on the princess and the frog story. There are a lot of sing-a-long videos too and those are great for getting your little princesses in the mood for a magical day.
Children love to create, and getting them together to make their own fairy princess crowns is a great way to do that. You can have a craft table already set up with different kinds and colors of paper, crayons, color pencils, and paint, samples of cloth, glue, and safety scissors to start with. They can coordinate their princess crowns with their fairy wings for a super-cute look.
You may want to have your party during non-meal hours so the girls won’t get their costumes stained with food. For snacks, you can always have some sort of finger food like fruits, nuts, chips, and juice. Don’t forget to include a dainty tea set to serve your princesses with! A flowery china tea cup is so much better than a glass for drinking juice!
There is nothing more delightful than watching your little girl be transformed into the princess that she already is inside. With her butterfly wing princess costume and her crown she will look and feel just like those beautiful princesses in the movies.
You are only limited by your imagination.

A great theme for any little girl’s nursery is butterflies. It’s not only versatile and easy to implement, but offers a world of whimsy and imagination for your baby girl to experience.
A number of different background colors can be used for this nursery theme. From pastel pinks to bright yellows and greens, virtually any color you choose can become a wonderful canvas on which you can create an enchanting and alluring butterfly theme.
Butterfly elements for your room can range from bedding, to wall decor, butterfly artwork, mobiles and even lettering. A garden, castle or simple outdoor spring feeling can be brought into the room to add special settings for your butterfly decor. Some easy implementation ideas for adding butterflies into your nursery theme are:
1) Mobiles – What else could be more mesmerizing and dream-like than watching a beautiful, elegant mobile made from nylon butterflies that shimmer and dance in the light during the day, and provide an ethereal glow in the dimmed atmosphere at night?
You can hang the mobile from the ceiling or in the typical mobile application on the crib. Hanging the mobile from the ceiling will give you extended use once the baby has grown to toddler age and leaves the crib behind.
2) Personalization – Using butterfly wall stickers or letters spelling the baby’s name will give a personal and designer feel and will help learning of the child’s name by the early and repetitive sight of the word. An additional bonus is that the letters can be moved and rearranged in a different presentation style if you change themes at some later date.
3) Butterfly artwork – Frame storybook pages or mount an open frame with nylon butterflies, greenery, dragonflies and even flowers inside. These ideas will give you original and unique elements that can’t be found elsewhere because they came from your imagination. They can also be re-used or re-done when you’d like a little change or your child falls in love with a certain story.
4) Accessories – Use butterfly curtain tie-backs, curtain rod adornments, butterfly lamp shades, message boards and even a growth chart. The little
details like this will complete your theme and provide a vibrant yet delicate feel.
This theme is one that can grow with your child from baby to toddler and even a young girl. Butterflies are mystical, magical creatures that capture the imagination at any age. Fluttering on the wall from flower to flower or softly floating on a mobile, butterfly decor in your nursery is an amazing theme selection that can be modified and re-worked to save your future time and expense
