Ideas for Crafting with Toilet Paper Rolls
We may be stuck at home in an odd time where toilet paper is invaluable. We’ve been using it sparingly; however, we have been collecting and saving the rolls. Being stuck at home, we need some things to do! Here are some ideas for crafting with toilet paper rolls at home.
Make a Bunny
With some scrapbook or construction paper, make a toilet paper roll bunny. Cut our ears, a nose, and feet with paper and glue them on. Play around with patterns and colors.
Wrap Small Gifts

Recycled TP Roll Reindeer

Get Creative with a Shoebox
With an old shoebox and some art supplies, make a play castle. Use toilet paper tubes to make the towers. Cut out windows and make little furniture. You can also turn the tubes into trees!

Flower Ornament

Any trouble with hiding the seams or the seams separating? I’ve spent months on Christmas Snowflakes and I’m throwing them all out as they show seams, the paint is rough, etc.
What am I doing wrong????
