Toilet paper roll Christmas tree…$5
Don’t have time/effort/need for a real Christmas tree? Me neither. Do you use toilet paper? Me too. It sounds like you may be the perfect candidate to make this toilet paper roll Christmas tree. Return those toilet paper rolls to whence they came - make them back into a tree!
You need:
- A bunch of toilet paper rolls (I used 45)
- Stapler
- Spray paint
