Introduction

I'm happy to be here in this week's contest and I'm really in love with this week's contest about talents. Many people have talents but really don't know what it is or what they're good at.

Here are two things I love doing and from people's appreciation I knew I can perfect the art by learning how to do them way better.

Oh yes! I thought I had no talents until during my teacher training college where I would drew almost all my teaching aids to ease the understanding of my pupils and those things that could be better understood as real objects were never drawn.

Just like drawing, I did beautiful craft in my classroom as a teacher with beans and maize and at times with beer corks. I then knew i had a thing for beads making and so I still needed to undergo learning to perfect it.

Since I enjoyed beading things as a hobby, I had to learn to perfect that Talent so as to create things that I can sell to friends and reduce stress.

           Talent  1️⃣
           Drawing A Butterfly

For our drawing, as a teacher that I'm, I have been so used to teaching my learners drawing using letters as a way of reinforcing those learners who still find it difficult in sounding the letters well.

Secondly, I love this invertebrates insect because they are;

Butterflies as pollinators

I am sure that the first reason to save the butterflies that comes to many peoples minds is their role as pollinators for flowers, however many people under estimate exactly how important this role is.

Do you know that our food production depends on pollinators, Thanks to these insects our fruits are highly dependent on pollinators to provide the high yields we expect.

The next time you're picking a fruit just sat a big thank you to the pollinator, a butterfly I guess.

Since a butterfly can be drawn from three letters, it's the main reason why I decided to draw butterflies.

Here are the letters we need for our drawing;


#YBK

 Materials Needed for our Drawing

🔹 Boldmaker
🔹 Crayons
🔹A4 paper


#Steps

✳️ I start by writing the letters in a spacing manner.
Then I start drawing the first butterfly from the letter and soon.

Started drawing my butterfly with three letters Y, B and K

✳️I draw as if to make an oval from each starting point till I finish. Since a butterfly has a set of wings on each side, I finished with the wings first

✳️ After drawing the wings, I moved and draw the tiny head and the antenna, then I draw a tiny abdomen too.

I then coloured to make my butterfly more Beautiful.

after drawing

✳️Some features like the legs are invisible in my sample of Drawing.

✳️I then coloured my butterflies with beautiful colours that reflects how this insect is.
Taaadaaaa! My butterflies are looking beautiful.

      Talent 2️⃣ 
   Beading a Box(Square)

A bead is a tiny small piece of glass or stone that is threaded wit a twane to form beautiful objects or necklaces.

For our contest sake, I will bead a box (square) which can be used as decoration in our vehicles or key holder.

   Materials Needed for our Craft

🔹Fishing line
🔹Sugar beads
🔹Blade


#Steps

I started by cutting my fishing line to one meter and put three beads and I crossed with the fourth bead. After crossing, I dragged well.

✳️I then continued with these beads, I put one bead on the left line and vice versa and crossed with the third bead.

Repeated the process time and again until I reached the sixth line.

The process

✳️I then turned by putting two beads on the left line and crossing with the third.
I again put two beads on the right and then crossed with the left after which I sent to left thread to the next bead on the beads.
Repeated the process until I was at the sixth

✳️I then joined the two sides with one bead and continued the previous processes. After joining I ended my line.

✳️And that's how my box is made!!

This box can be used as decoration in our vehicles and while not key holders too. It can be made for 15minutes and sold at approximately 500frs( approximately 4 steem)

Here's a sample of a beaded bag which I took approximately five hours a week to bead

I knew you had talent only in beading because I have seen a lot of your handworks when it comes to beading. I didn't realize you have talent in drawing as well

You didn't just draw a butterfly 🦋, you also talked a lot on it including it's benefits to mankind which is really impressive

From your butterfly sketching, I can conclude that you are indeed also talented when it comes to drawing because your sketch butterfly is so so beautiful

Your box square is very beautiful and I'm not surprised at it's creativity because I know when it comes to beading, you are simply the best

Awwwww!
Thanks for your kind words and it has brighten my evening.

I hope you're going to order my box to decorate your car when you eventually buy one.
I will then bead boxes of varying colours and the mixture will be beautiful
