Butterfly Toilet Paper Roll Craft

This artistic butterfly toilet paper roll would make a stunning wall decoration.

For this reason, if you use kitchen paper towel rolls or craft paper rolls, this product would make a fun classroom project – think of the amazing wall display with colorful paper roll butterflies.

Toilet paper roll crafts, although we often use paper towel rolls, are a popular and economical craft material.

You can create all sorts of amazing creations with something as simple as a paper roll (like these toilet paper roll bees).

There are also different ways to make them, we usually color the paper roll and decorate it to make a character, but this time we will do it a little differently.

These butterflies require a little more skill since you need to cut the rolls (or they need to be pre-cut by a parent/teacher). But actually making butterflies from toilet paper rolls is quite easy.

How to make a butterfly craft with toilet paper

What you need:

toilet paper rolls (one or more rolls, can be kitchen paper towel rolls or store-bought craft paper rolls)
white school glue
paint
paint brush
drag
canvas or cardboard

Follow the step-by-step instructions

Press the paper roll down to flatten it.

Start by cutting the roll into 6 equal pieces. Push If cutting 6 rolls of toilet paper from one roll seems difficult, use 2 rolls.

Set aside 5 and take one. Cut off one end (along the crease). Fold it over, glue the bottom to form an antenna, hold it for a moment to let the glue set (or use a clothespin or paper clip to hold it).
