Toilet Paper Pumpkins

Toilet Paper Pumpkins



 

This craft is so simple yet so fun! We made these toilet paper pumpkins in my son’s first grade class last year for his fall party and it was wonderful as the kids were able to complete it in their center rotation (which was about 5-7 minutes). There weren’t a lot of materials to haul along and they were relatively inexpensive (if you can find cheap toilet paper).

 

The other great thing about this simple craft is that after Halloween is over, you can just tear off the tissue paper and use the toilet paper for its intended purpose. No need to store it…just make more next year! :)

 

Here’s what you’ll need:

Orange Tissue Paper

Cheap Toilet Paper

Black Craft Foam or Felt with the sticky-back

Scissors

Rafia (optional)
