Fall Toilet Paper Roll Tree

This is a great craft for even young children. I think it turned out so cute.


You will need: Red, yellow and orange paint, scissors, toilet paper roll, and green construction paper (or card stock).











Cut the green paper into the shape of the tree top.









Use fingerprints dipped in the paint as Fall leaves.

Cut 2 slits down, across from each other on the toilet paper roll.
Slide tree top into those slits.

I will soon no longer need to recycle. I have discovered your site and now I can just craft myself to a greener world! I have a bunch of empty formula cans, any suggestions? Let me know if you ever need supplies for school!

The Crosses on Calvary

Image
I derived this craft from a project that Cheyanne's pre school class did. I thought it was a perfect Easter craft to share. We used: an Egg carton cup, playdough (or clay), 6 craft sticks, scissors, brown and gold paint, brushes, Easter grass (or craft moss) and glue. This can be done in so many different ways, so just use what you have around the house. Cheyanne painted 4 craft sticks brown and 2 gold. The 4 brown craft sticks, I cut with scissors so they would make smaller crosses. Round off the edges a bit. Glue the sticks together making crosses. Fill the egg cup with playdough and glue on the grass. Poke the crosses into the dough. I also cut out an egg shape from construction paper and glued the egg cup on it.

Halloween Hanging Decorations

Oh, how I love making Halloween decorations. This is my first Halloween decoration of the year. They are easy to make and look great hanging in the windows or over the table. To make them make 2 fans from construction paper and staple them together. Then decorate with construction paper, scissors, glue and tape.

Turkey Spoon Craft

Right now my house looks like it is being taken over by turkeys. Around all the holidays my house always looks like a craft show gone bad, and I would not have it any other way. Cheyanne and I had fun doing this cute and easy craft. We used: A wooden spoon, paint, brushes, glue, wiggly eyes and craft sticks. Our craft sticks were already colored, but you can paint or color with markers plain sticks if that is what you have. Paint the wooden spoon. Glue the craft sticks to the back of the spoon. Glue on the eyes. I painted the beak and the gobbler. Here he is all finished. I put him in the center piece in my dining room. I think he is adorable.
