Catch a Firefly

Hi Crafty Friends,
Did you used to catch fireflies as a kid? I did! My sister and I had little bug cages we made and we would go out at night and see who could catch the most. Don't worry we let them go! My sister is passing the tradition on to her kids, below are pics of her and her son Thomas catching his first firefly! I thought these pictures matched perfectly with the darling FIREFLY image from Rachelle Ann Miller Creative Studios.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: Do you have fireflies where you live?
A: Me? Yes, but there are WAY less than when I was a kid... where did they all go?
