Do you have a lot of toilet paper rolls laying around? Here's something that you can do with them!
Step 1: Gather your supplies. For this project, you'll need old toilet paper roles, (the number you need depends on what design you decide on for your project) glue, and paint.
Step 2: Crush your toilet paper roll in half, and cut it crosswise. Keep cutting until you've got tons of the "petal-shaped" pieces. These are the basic unit for your art.
Step 3: Begin gluing the "petals" together. How you do that depends on what kind of pattern you're going for.
Step 4: You can use bobby pins (any type of clip would work too) to hold the pieces together so that each segment can dry after you glue it.
Step 5: You can use 5 "petals" to make a flower. After you make a bunch of flowers, you can glue them all together in whatever pattern you like. After you you make all your flowers, you can glue them together in a pattern and also add a few other leafy segments here and there.
Step 6: Once you're happy with how your piece looks, and it is completely dry, you can start painting it whatever colors you like!
Step 7: Lastly, you can put it up on your wall to decorate your room!
Note: If you don't want to make flowers, you can make other designs that you like better. Just be creative and have fun!
