Get it all the way around the edge. These are solar lights. You know how much I like solar lights. Just lower them down in there and then leave this part out, okay? I forgot two things. One, to paint this butterfly. I'm going to transform it into an un butterfly. The other thing I forgot, gloves. Okay, I feel like Dr. Goots with this stuff. This is an epoxy glue. Put a around here and then, I'm going to take this and I'm going to put it directly onto the pot. Awesome. Now, we're just going to let this dry. Put the glue epoxy right around the center of the bottom and then, just take your miniature one and just place it right on top. We're going to put this one a little look at that. It's already dry. How fast is that? Epoxy is the way to go. Time to attach this one to the butterfly. So, with this one, I've got some cable that I've threaded into a washer. We're just going to push that right through the the bottom of the flower pot and get twisted up on my words and then, we're just going to set that like that. Let the wires hang out. Put your butterfly right on top and we're going to put the wires right up through here to fasten it so it doesn't go anywhere and then, just twist it around to give it a nice security. Okay. Now, what you're going to do is take these antennas and then just bend them down. This is all coming together nicely. I almost forgot I have to put these two pots together. So I'm going to put some epoxy there and a little on the top of this one. And here we go. Let's put these together. Okay. Don't worry about the washer because it's going to be hidden. But I can always hit it with a little bit of paint. Okay use the antennas to put it right over the edge of the flower pot. Okay in goes the soil I cannot wait for you to see the finished product and then, with it lit up, look at the rich colors. There's the green and the hot pink and the burgundy. Put these in. I don't know what these are called but they kind of remind me. Oh, maybe these are the elephant ear plants. Are these the elephant ear plants? Putting on the finishing touches. Just draw a circle here. More of an oval egg shape. Okay, I'm going to add some highlights. So, just go in lightly with the blue all the way around the edge of the butterfly. I'm going to take my fish bowl with my solar lights. I'm going to place it here in the rocks. Do it upside down quickly. Try and keep it level. Perfect and then scoop the rocks in so it's nice and flat. Alright, the moment of truth, here it is. Check out my elephant planter. I turned the butterfly into the elephant ears. I got the trunk. Check out the bulb. That's going to light up once the sun goes down. So, be sure to check the comments. I'll post a night time photo in the comment. If you hit the like button, I'll know that you saw it. Oh my gosh, remember, if I can do this, you can do this. Look at that. Aren't those flowers beautiful? Look at that. Wow. Amazing.
