Monarch Madness

In October the Panhandle Butterfly House located in Navarre, Florida holds a weekend event called Monarch Madness in conjunction with an Art's Festival. The Panhandle Butterfly House was formed to;

"..to increase the public’s awareness of butterflies and their important role in the environment."

This year my mother partnered with the Panhandle Butterfly House to help them raise money. My mothers love of origami and nature converged and she was able to make butterfly earrings and pins which she sold at cost to the Panhandle Butterfly House who in turn sells them for quite a bit more and is able to raise money for the butterfly house. My mom has become quite an accomplished artist with her origami skills and loves teaching others especially children the art of origami.
