What You Will Need
To make your very own toilet roll angel, you’ll need a mix of everyday household items and a bit of festive sparkle. The best part? No need to break the bank! This craft is all about using what you have and getting creative with it.
Don’t worry if you don’t have every item on this list. Feel free to improvise. Kids love personalizing their crafts and making each angel their own unique creation. Now, let’s get crafting!
Here’s what you need to gather:
- An empty toilet paper roll
- White paper or paint to cover the roll
- Yellow paper for the angel’s hair (or any color your child prefers!)
- Cupcake liners for the wings
- A small piece of cardboard for the face
- Markers or crayons to draw the face
- Scissors
- Glue stick
- Glitter and sequins for extra sparkle (optional but highly recommended!)
How To Make A Toilet Roll Angel
Start by covering the empty toilet roll with white paper or paint. This will form the angel’s body. You can use glue to stick the paper onto the roll or let the kids have fun painting it.
While waiting for the paint to dry, cut a circle out of cardboard to make the angel’s face. Draw a sweet, happy face using markers or crayons. Encourage your kids to get creative with expressions! Maybe the angel is winking or smiling big.
Next, take a piece of yellow paper and cut thin strips to make the angel’s curly hair. Roll the strips around a pencil to curl them. This step is so fun and kids love seeing the paper curl magically! Once the curls are done, glue them onto the top of the angel’s face.
Grab a couple of cupcake liners to form the angel’s wings. Flatten them out and glue them to the back of the toilet roll. This is where your angel will start looking like it’s ready to fly! For an added touch of sparkle, you can add some glitter to the wings.
Now, let’s make a halo! Use a pipe cleaner or some shiny tinsel to form a circle and attach it to the top of the angel’s head using a stick or straw. Once everything is glued and dried, your angel is ready to spread holiday cheer. Place it on a shelf, hang it on the tree, or let your child gift it to someone special.
