Handmade paper roll crab

What you need;

  • paper rolls (toilet paper, kitchen paper rolls…)
  • wobble eye patch
  • red construction paper (or red paint)
  • glue
  • drag
  • black marker

How to make one

First we need to make a red tube. You can cover it with red construction paper or paint it red. Next draw crab claws and legs on the construction paper and cut them out.

Decorate the red paper tube. Add two wiggle eye stickers (aren’t they cute) and draw a mouth with a black marker. You can also add other facial details like eyelashes, nostrils, etc.

Glue the legs and claws. Your cute little toilet paper roll crab is ready to display or play with. Looks pretty cool, right?
