Thursday Throwdown: butterflies vs. bees

Hello, and welcome. I'm back today a fun post in the Thursday Throwdown series - and the theme is butterflies vs. bees!


Thursday Throwdown: butterflies vs. bees


When it comes to crafting, I love them both. In real life, though, I much prefer to stay away from bees. I've been stung twice before and, honestly, it was twice too many.

But as to crafts...

First, the butterflies.

At the beginning of the year I made this butterfly zipper purse. It sold and since then I didn't make anything else with the rest of the fabric.

Earlier this week I decided to cut the pieces for a butterfly tote bag but I still didn't have time to sew it, so it looks like this:

  1. Those bumblebee tags are adorable! :) I like both, especially for crafting, but if I'm out and about in nature, I definitely prefer butterflies.
