DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Swan Toilet Paper Roll Craft

When we make crafts, we sometimes get a little imaginative with colours. Something about a gorgeous pink swan just makes me smile!

In real life, swans are either white or black when they're adults and a light grey colour when they're juvenilles. In our imaginations, they can be any colour we like!

Materials:

• 1 toilet paper roll /swan
• Paint (I used pink, yellow, and orange)
• Glue or tape
• Black marker
• Scissors

Instructions:

• First, like the picture shows cut out two vertical lines about 2/3 of the toilet paper roll.
• Next, draw a diagonal line from one line to the other, connecting them in the middle. Then cut it out.
• Once it is all cut out, cut a triangle shape from the neck.
• Now paint it the colour of your choice, bend the neck forward slightly.
• Add eyes and a beak.
• With the extra cut out cardboard, cut out two leaf shapes (2 for each swan)
• Paint the wings the colour of your swan.
• Once they are dry you can glue or tape them the side of your swan.
• That is all! You can set them by a window, or even put a fake candle inside of it!
