Accidentally melted the bottom of one wing when soldering the prongs on, so cut it out of the other side as well and used a stone I don’t like as much so I can make a perfect one with the stone I like!

How did you decide to go with this layout?
I traced the profile of the stone into my notebook and tried different wing shapes, based on pictures of butterflies I was looking at. Once I had a shape I liked, I drew it again on an index card and drew the holes in, more based on what I felt looked good than what butterflies actually looked like. The long skinny holes kinda highlight the stone I think
