I know that I am constantly on the look out for easy crafts to do with the kids. I especially love the ones where there is no sewing, cutting, glueing... MESS involved! This is one such craft!
Supplies needed:
1. Rolls of toilet paper. (Varying sizes is great!)
2. Squares of fabric in fall colors. Just make sure they are large enough to cover your entire roll of TP.
3. Brown paper. I used rolled up lunch sacks.
4. Green felt to use for leaves.
5. Pipe cleaners. Green is good, but I had silver on hand and thought they were festive.
6. Pin or glue.
Take a square of fabric with print face down. Place toilet paper roll in center and neatly fold the corners into the center make a nice and neat wrapped roll of toilet paper. Roll up brown paper bag and insert it into the center. Take a pipe cleaner and wrap it around a round pencil or pen to make a nice spring like coil. Wrap coil around the brown paper insert and let the coil hang out the side. Cut a leaf out of the green felt. Use a stick pin or glue to hold leaf in place.
VOILA! Decorative pumpkins! So easy that even I can do it! :)
Those are super cute, and look easy! How do some of them look taller than others? The orange one looks taller than the red one it is right next to.
ReplyDeleteI used different kinds of toilet paper. I had some Angel Soft and a roll of Charmin along with the Dollar Tree stuff. I bet a big roll would make a nice one!
