How can I preserve a butterfly that I just found?

Question

I just found a lovely little painted lady and she's got her wings folded up but otherwise in perfect condition. I was wondering how I can make her wings be in the open position and how to preserve her in one of those little glass displays. Thanks! (:

Answer 2

carefully with q-tips or something small, slowly pry open the wings. The best way to keep it is to pin it to a surface through its body as to protect it from banging around. Other then that there really isn't much else. Good luck.
