You just need a toilet paper tube. For decoration you need some colored paper or photos from a magazine. I used comic strips from a newspaper.
You also should have scissors and paper glue at home.
Thats all! Klick "Next Step" to see how to make!

- Cut out a strip of colored paper, a comic strip, a photo or whatever you like. It should be a bit bigger then the cutted cardboard tube.
- Cover the backside all over with paper glue. I used a glue stick for this.
- Glue your decoration around the cardboard tube.
- Bend the overlapping decoration inside the tube.
- Thats it!
