Toilet-roll necklaces

I have been collecting cardboard toilet-rolls for a while now. I got inspired by some toilet-roll craft on Vegie Smugglers and I made some toilet-roll pirates and a snake with Mr Sociable.

Last week, I decided to make some necklaces at playgroup, using my large collection of toilet rolls. We have a large age-range at Playgroup, so threading with beads/pasta is not really an option with babies around.

First, I painted them, by rolling them over a sponge filled with paint.

I left them to dry.

Then, I cut them into thirds.

The kids threaded them onto wool to make necklaces.
