Description
This feather butterfly garland strings nine small handmade butterflies along a fine thread, ready to bring a flutter of colour to a wall, window or doorway. The wings are feather in two shades, a soft pale pink and a deep rose red, set in turn down the length, and each is marked with little yellow spots and a sparkle of glitter. Every butterfly measures about 8cm wide and 5cm long, a dainty size that keeps the whole piece light and airy, and the garland runs to 1.6 metres from end to end, finished with a clear bead at the bottom.
Hang it where a little movement catches the eye: down the side of a bedroom mirror, against a pale wall, from the edge of a bookshelf or beside a window where the feathers stir in the air. The length gives you room to let it drop straight or loop it loosely, and the pink and red pairing sits happily against white, grey or green walls. Because each butterfly is so small and light, the garland suits a corner that would feel crowded by a larger piece, and it brings a gentle touch of nature indoors at any time of year.
It hangs from a tied loop at the top, or from the sprung metal clip that comes with it, a neat 3cm clip that pinches onto a curtain edge, a picture wire or a shelf bracket. The garland is made from feather, metal, plastic and polystyrene, and because every butterfly is made by hand, the size and look of each one may vary a little, which is part of its charm. Feathers are delicate, so handle it gently, keep it dry and lift away dust with a soft dry brush. For a pretty finishing touch, clip it to the corner of a framed print or let it fall beside a dressing table mirror.
