In the dark they will be visible - this option is suitable for placement on the ceiling and on the walls; for both the nursery and the hallway.

The sketches will then need to be cut, and with the slightest sharp and inaccurate movement, the future stencil will be damaged and will become unsuitable for further work, as a result of which all the actions will have to be repeated again.

Ideas for changing the decor in a house or apartment
Everyone is accustomed to the fact that the ceiling should be strictly light in color - this has been so for many decades.Not so long ago, they began to glue wallpaper on it, add forms from drywall or fit it with a dense fabric, lay it out with tiles. Why not “settle” on it a small colony of 3D moths flying toward the light or “circling around the light” with a desire to warm themselves. Composing the future design, it is worthwhile to plan in detail the placement of butterflies on the walls or ceiling, as they will be in harmony with other elements found in the room so that excessive decoration of the interior does not work out with details - this is a sign of tastelessness, and not sophistication in the decor of a room.
It is worth placing bright colored or plain (depending on the color of the wallpaper) fluttering creations on one of the walls, and leave the rest unchanged.
The idea of decorating moths with a colorful interior
If the walls of the wallpaper are very bright colors - for work you can buy ready-made stickers of plain butterflies of various sizes of white or beige colors (they will become calming elements in the "flashy" decor). Decorating with moths is one of the walls, which is located behind the sofa, placing the creatures in such a way as if they are flying in a circle, creating a funnel. On the opposite side you can place a picture in a frame with the image of small winged insects. In this case, the ceiling is best decorated with a chandelier in the tone of butterflies, and a carpet of the same color is laid on the floor.
Decor Ideas in a Kids Room
Some rainbow colors
You can change the interior a bit with the help of templates and paint (you can even use oil). Letting children help in creating colonies of fluttering creatures on the walls - they will be satisfied not only with the result, but also with the process. You can complement the composition with a floral carpet by the beds or a chandelier decorated with voluminous butterflies made of paper or other material.
Revitalizing Moths
Making your own 3D butterfly stickers is easy. They can be cut out of cardboard or old photographs, then slightly bent to one side and glue several pieces together. After that, with the help of double-sided tape, paper moths “sit down” on the wall, smoothly switching to furniture (cabinet or table).
Such repairs will renew the perception of the children's room and preserve a gentle and naive atmosphere for the child living in it.
Design Ideas for Home Decor Elements
The most suitable place in the interior for butterflies is textiles. Harmoniously matched linens, bedspreads or curtains fill the house with comfort and remind you of the warm summer. The most daring can make to order or make large pillows or poufs on their own with the image of these wonderful creatures and can place them along the walls on the floor. Adhesive moths look wonderful on fabric lampshades - these stickers can be easily removed and replaced with others if they get bored. On the curtains, you can randomly "plant" these beauties made of cardboard, organza or polystyrene.
With the help of simple patterns of moths of various sizes and multi-colored paints, you can make a large window in your baby’s room or visually make it smaller. And if you still use the sponge when drawing, the butterflies will turn out textured, the impression will be that they are alive.
Decorative illumination from LEDs or from an ordinary Christmas tree garland (wires can be hidden under a frame made of drywall), and instead of mini-plafonds - transparent moths will make the room more cozy and comfortable. Such an application will look great above the table or smoothly fall from the ceiling (from the lamp) to the wall, and then to the floor or go to the front door to the apartment or any room.
In addition to the standard design, you can decorate with butterflies the coasters, shelves, place them near flower pots.
Moths cut from ordinary cans, vinyl records or plastic bottles can be fixed on a spring and placed on supports, walls and lanterns in the gazebo, they can decorate the facade of the house and all buildings in the yard, as well as the fence.
Despite the fact that the preparation of stencils itself takes a huge amount of time, and the manufacturing process of butterflies requires attention and perseverance - nevertheless, the expected result will be obtained:
- The apartment will become more comfortable.
- The interior will be updated.
- Again there will be a desire to spend more time at home.
At any time, when butterflies of one or a lot of colors begin to bother, you can make new ones and carefully supplement the application with them, or possibly repaint them in a different color. It all depends on the imagination and desire to change something in your home.
