Butterfly: Last year I bought some black pants, a black shirt,and some beautiful wings, and I went as a butterfly. Thanks to Ashley for this smart idea! Another Idea I was a butterfly for Halloween two years ago. Here's how. I got some butterfly wings at Wal-mart (they can be any color),then I got some yellow tights to match my wings, and after that I had a yellow shirt that snapped at the bottom, so we dyed it yellow. That's how I was a butterfly. Thanks to Kelly for this addition.
