"I Never Saw Another Butterfly"
In memory of the 1.5 million children who perished in the Holocaust, the Holocaust Museum in Houston, TX is collecting handmade butterflies. January 12-16 we will be making butterflies to be part of the exhibit. Please donate hot glue sticks, rhinestones, beads, aluminum foil, and sharpies to help us make our butterflies.
