Once you have a sea critter inside, you have a few options.
1. TICKLE the edges of the jar to cause your bug to multiply (Please note, gemstone bugs will never be plural)
2. TURN the lid on the jar to see what kind of designs your bug can transfer to paper

The jar is currently 1 of 2 Tiers.

Alterations: You may alter the jar provided it stays some kind of jar that has a handle and a lid.

Welcome to the Bugs on Parade Bug Jar!

This jar works all across Elanthia and allows you to look at all the lovely insects that the lands have to offer. Once you've captured one, the jar lets you imbue them with magic. This magic lets you transfer designs featuring the little critters to paper.

Instructions:
1. PEER through the jar as you wander the lands
2. SHAKE the jar when you find a bug you'd like to capture
3. PLUCK the insect out of the jar to retrieve it

Once you have a bug inside, you have a few options.

An eye-spotted peacock pansy butterfly has been captured and replicated by a Bugs on Parade Bug Jar.

As part of the Large-winged Insect category of bugs, it can accept the following foraged items: none
If you do not PUSH a foraged item into the butterfly, then do not worry as there is a default in place.

This particular butterfly will change the paper's LOOK description to:

Dotted lines and elegant whorls are inked into the border of the (paper adj.) (paper noun), creating an artistic rendering of the flight pattern of an eye-spotted peacock pansy butterfly that is elegantly sketched near the top.

Once it has done this, it will disintegrate.

The Bugs on Parade Bug Jar is the progenitor of items meant to bring out the child in everyone and is part of the Bugs on Parade insect collection system. The jar allows characters to wander around Elanthia, PEERing into the secret world of insects and then, with a good SHAKE, capture replicas of the little darlings. The jar debuted at Rumor Woods 2022 in the shop Bugs on Parade.

Bugs on Parade Bug Jar

Tier 1 - Paper

The base jar allows you to make Paper Bugs, which can be applied to paper.

Analyze

Welcome to the Bugs on Parade Bug Jar!

This jar works all across Elanthia and allows you to look at all the lovely insects that the lands have to offer.  Once you've captured one, the jar lets you imbue them with magic.  This magic lets you transfer designs featuring the little critters to paper.

Instructions:
1. PEER through the jar as you wander the lands
2. SHAKE the jar when you find a bug you'd like to capture
3. PLUCK the insect out of the jar to retrieve it

Once you have a bug inside, you have a few options.

OPTIONS:
1. TICKLE the edges of the jar to cause your bug to multiply (Please note, gemstone bugs will never be plural)
2. TURN the lid on the jar to see what kind of designs your bug can transfer to paper

The jar is currently 1 of 2 Tiers.

Alterations: You may alter the jar provided it stays some kind of jar that has a handle and a lid.

Candy Bug

Candy bugs come in three versions: hard, chewy, and chocolate.

Gem Bug

Gemstone-type insects can be used in a variety of systems, including Veola hair accessories and Gather Swarm Charms.

Paper Bug

Created by the Bugs on Parade Bug Jar, Paper Bugs can be used to modify mailing or writing paper with a unique design. See the various Paper Bug options below.

Analyze

You analyze your peacock pansy butterfly and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

An eye-spotted peacock pansy butterfly has been captured and replicated by a Bugs on Parade Bug Jar.
It is designed to be POINTed at a piece of qualifying paper and will transfer its design to that paper.

As part of the Large-winged Insect category of bugs, it can accept the following foraged items: none
If you do not PUSH a foraged item into the butterfly, then do not worry as there is a default in place.

This particular butterfly will change the paper's LOOK description to:

Dotted lines and elegant whorls are inked into the border of the (paper adj.) (paper noun), creating an artistic rendering of the flight pattern of an eye-spotted peacock pansy butterfly that is elegantly sketched near the top.

Once it has done this, it will disintegrate.

Due to the nature of the butterfly, it cannot be altered.
