These pics are just some colourful pics I took while away on our road trip. . One of the attractions we visited was the butterfly sanctuary - The World of Butterflies at the Otago museum, it was quite the experience. The temperature was very hot as it was heated to tropical temp for the plants and the butterflies. . . . . . . . #destinationnz #discover_newzealand #gottalovenz #roadtrip #roadtripwithfriends #newzealandfinds #nzmustdo #wanderlustofnz #wonderlustnewzealand #ipreview #worldofbutterflies #otagomuseum #otagomuseumbutterflies #teanau #teanauglowwormcaves https://www.instagram.com/p/CO1Lxazp-Og/?igshid=1nd29j2179dju

The rusty nails left an impressive mark. The next exciting step is to free-motion embroider the dark veins and damage on the wings. . . . #fruitbat #museumofnaturalmystery #animalattic #otagomuseum #dunedinmuseum #dunedinmuseumofnaturalmystery https://www.instagram.com/p/B2a-yFeg3Dd/?igshid=1otoqgyrxru6j

4 Days of rust dying. I didnt expect black! The red from the nails looks great. I am quite curious to see if the black will fade to red after a little soaking. . . . #fruitbat #museumofnaturalmystery #animalattic #otagomuseum #dunedinmuseum #dunedinmuseumofnaturalmystery https://www.instagram.com/p/B2DsgLqA-tS/?igshid=1oqe6c7q1x7yf
