Fall Fun!

Aren’t these Fall pumpkins adorable?

Can you guess what they are made out of? Toilet paper rolls!!! Our Grandfriends had so much fun making them. 

All you need to make them is,  a “fat quarter” square of fabric. (thinner, cheaper fabric works better), some ribbon for a stem, a roll of toilet paper, and some green pipe cleaner. 

Place the roll in the middle of the fabric square, and start pulling up small sections and tucking them into the top of the roll. Keep tucking until the entire roll is covered. You may need to clean up the pleats in the fabric to give it more of a pumpkin look. Finish your pumpkin by adding a folded piece of ribbon, and a pipe cleaner that has been twisted around a pencil. EASY PEASY! Lots of fun for sure!

My favorite comment for the activity…. “We can prep for an emergency, and have it be cute.” True, so true!
