Make a cute flamingo using a toilet paper roll and free printable!
I have been limiting trips to the store and am trying to buy less online since a lot of items are either out of stock or have longer shipping times. So, I have been challenging myself to create crafts and projects using what I already have. Which is not that much since I’ve thrown most of my stash away to make room for baby items. But one item I’ve been saving a lot of are toilet paper rolls! Toilet paper has been a hot commodity the last few months but luckily we have always had a decent supply and I’ve been saving rolls for projects with my son.
After I made the toilet paper roll narwhal I’ve been thinking of a ton of other animals to make with a paper roll. This flamingo is so fun and easy! If you don’t have a printer or are out of ink, simply draw a wing, head, and tail to glue on!
