## Create you own string art

Create your own string art piece of a butterfly. Adjust the frame dimensions and the butterfly's width (automatically centered), choose your favorite marks, and start creating an unlimited number of different versions, as each string pattern will produce a new and unique composition.

## Instructions for use

-   Even if you've already cut frame at the prefect dimensions, include frame for an easiest alignement (and disable cut in your cutting software)
    
-   Adjust your marks (Type and size) depending your nails and materials.
    
-   Missing inspiration to make an nice path? See one provide above! Don't like it? Adjust "Interval" in "Marks Options" to generate an new path.
    
-   Mix and match : You can score original path and use string only for inner path.

## Materials :

-   3mm polywood is enough for small nails. I use white **unalit** to provide an contrasted background.
