TP Roll Butterflies
Make beautiful spring butterflies out of recycled toilet paper rolls!
Materials
Directions
Cut your toilet paper roll into four equal-sized pieces. Bend these at both ends so they form a "wing" shape.
Paint the twig bodies and antennae black.
Paint some fancy designs on the inside and outside of your "wings."
Let the paint dry.
Glue it all together! Glue the antennae (two thin twigs) onto the twig body (thick twig) and then glue the wings onto either side of the twig body. Let it dry.
