Costume designer Romy McCloskey has been raising butterflies since she accidentally found a number of caterpillars in her yard in October last fall.

The butterfly had sustained an accident while pupating that left his wings damaged. A friend sent her video how she could repair the miscroscopic guy’s wings and that is precisely what she did.

Her post, filled with seven pictures, details how she went about transplanting the wings of the butterfly which had died earlier onto this place.

Ms McCloskey used a tweezers, scissors, talc, contact cement and toothpick among other things to correct the butterfly’s wings.

She secured the butterfly having a bent hanger to remove his damaged wings. “Don’t worry, this doesn’t happen hurt. It’s like trimming hair or nails,” she says on Facebook.

Here’s how the miscroscopic guy looked once she was done putting him back together.

“We a successful flight! A quick spin round the backyard, a little rest on on of the bushes… then… ‘like the down of the thistle ‘… off he flew! My heart soared with him, without a doubt!” she says on Facebook.
