Information

      Hello everyone! 🦋✨

Today, I present to you my new butterfly shelter, a decorative and functional project designed to welcome these precious visitors to the garden.

This model has been designed to be completely disassembled. Only the decorative wings are glued, everything else comes together without gluing.

The shelter also has a small built-in feeder, to be filled with a mixture of water and sugar to attract butterflies. For this part, I used a simple aluminum tealight holder (38 mm x 15 mm), easily found at a low price on the internet.

Two installation modes are possible:

🌿 To be placed on a flat surface thanks to its integrated legs.
🌿 To be hung high up for natural integration into a tree or near a flower bed.

The project is designed to be made of 3 mm plywood and requires 3 boards of 30 x 30 cm for its complete manufacture.

As always, the cutting and engraving was done with my M1 Ultra 20W

Cutout: Power 80 Speed 8
Engraving: Power 30 Speed 130

SVG size 600 x 600 mm

I hope this creation will find its place in many gardens and help provide a small refuge for these beautiful pollinators. 🦋💛
