DIY: Rainbow Flower Toilet Paper Roll Craft

You've probably seen the countless kid crafts you can make with toilet paper rolls, but how about something you and your child can equally appreciate? Collect toilet paper rolls and paper towel rolls to make a statement piece for your walls. Remember the more you save the bigger your craft will be. Toilet paper rolls can be painted any color or you can keep them in its natural form for a rustic look.

What makes this material so popular to craft with is its ability to bend in any shape you want. Bend them into oval shapes to resemble flower petals, keep them in a circle, cut, twist, or curl them. You can use all of these shapes in a single wall piece. Check out how others have livened up dull house settings with something you once considered trash!

Step #4 

Now it's time to paint your rolls in bright colors. This is the fun and messy part. Whether you do this on a table or the floor, spread a garbage bag over it to prevent paint from getting everywhere.

Be patient and let them dry, it doesn't take too long!

Step #5 

Glue your rolls together in your desired shape. I used a hot glue gun but kids should use regular glue, double sided tape, or a stapler.

Craft's Note: For hot gluers, squeeze hot gun unto your rolls then insert in place. Use tweezers to press your rolls into place. Also keep a cup of iced water nearby in case you get burned (but not close to the plug or your glue gun!)
