Christmas is right around the corner but there is still time to make up this super simple ornament with the kids. You’ll only need supplies you probably already have around the house. In my house, we always save up our toilet paper and paper towel cardboard rolls for crafting. Toilet paper roll crafts are perfect for kids (and adults) of any age. They can be painted or even colored with simple markers to make some fun and fast crafts with the kids. Hope you like this quick Christmas ornament idea.
