12 Toilet Paper Roll Christmas Crafts
Ooooh I am soooooo excited about this post! Here you have two of my very favourite things!!!! TOILET ROLLS and CHRISTMAS!!! Whoop whoop. I love easy Toilet Paper Roll crafts for kids, as Toilet Paper Rolls are FREE, everyone has them and they are incredibly and surprisingly versatile… Toilet Rolls ROCK…. and then we have Christmas. Oh how I love Christmas and Easy Christmas Crafts for Kids – as the days grow shorter and we spend more and more time indoors, it is a great opportunity to get crafty.
Also, making Christmas crafts is all about the ANTICIPATION of Christmas. Looking forward to the big day… and also making Christmas “things” that you can give as gifts… or simply have fun with. So bring the two together – Toilet Paper Roll Christmas Crafts, well, my crafty heaven!!! So without a further ado, here are 12 lovely little TP Roll Christmas ideas to hopefully get you crafty away straight away!
12 TP Roll Christmas Crafts
Toilet Paper Roll Snowman
These TP Roll Snowmen (and a game of Snowman Bowling) where one of our earliest Toilet Paper Roll makes for Christmas. The kids where quite little and had lots of fun painting the toilet paper rolls and adding their details. I (!) especially enjoyed using the kids’ olds odds and ends of socks (i mean, like where do the second socks go??!) and making them into hats and scarves for the loo rool snowmen! You could take this craft futher, by adding numbers to the back of the snowman and getting the kids to do some simple maths when playing snowman bowling this winter!
Toilet Roll Angels
Another “oldier” for us are this cute little TP Roll Angel (say aaaaah)! I say “angel”, in fact we made an army of angels. I think that is because we made the toilet roll snowman first and the kids LOVED the process of making lots and kept want to make more!! So we did. I have kept one from each child and over the years they always come out at Christmas Time. So sweet!
Toilet Roll Nutcracker Ballet
Here is a fun toilet paper roll nutcracker trio, that came from the era of when I liked to make story time characters with the kids (we have a fabulous three little pigs and Little Red Ridinghood set too). It was fun to make each different character. And I especially loved how very easy the Toilet Roll Mouse was to make, as the toilet roll natural colour is so perfect the mouse!
Toilet Roll Christmas Tree
Fabulous Toilet Paper Roll Christmas Trees – they are great as ornaments, decorations or even as Napkin Rings! Such a fun way to make just the one craft but use it lots of different ways. Personally, I loved the Christmas Tree napkin rings best – but I would use acyrlic paints if using them in this way, so that the paint doesn’t “run” if made wet (which poster paints do!).
Twiggy Toilet Roll Reindeer Craft
How about a Twiggy Toilet Roll Rudolph? Yes please! Another blast from the past. In the early days, the kids and I really did craft with toilet paper rolls A LOT. Toilet paper rolls are so plenty full, are an eco friendly craft material and surprisingly versatile. This little twiggy toilet paper roll rudolph made us all very happy!
Toilet Paper Roll Santa (treat box)
When I said, our toilet paperroll snowman was one of our first toilet paper roll crafts for Christmas, I had actually forgot our little TP Roll Santa! We made this little guy way back when the kids where getting ready for their first (german) Nikolaus Tag on the 6th December. He was filled with treats and placed in a basket of nuts, dried fruits and satsumas!
Celebrate 3 Kings Day with this simple but effective TP Roll Crown Craft
Toilet Paper Roll Nativity – Three Kings
Alternatively, make your OWN set of 3 Kings AND a Camel! (The Camel still makes me giggle). Find the Toilet Paper Roll 3 Kings here and the TP Roll Camel here. We really now need to knuckle down and make the rest of nativity (we have the Angel above already), but a Mary, Joseph and Baby Jesus is much needed!
Winter Fairy Tale Scene
We also had fun, with a Winter Small World Play
