These cardboard roll crafts are fun and easy to make! We save plenty of empty paper towel rolls and wrapping paper rolls to re-use for these crafts. These are perfect for a rainy day or anytime you are in need of some simple crafty fun! Here is one of our favorite cardboard roll crafts — an adorable cat family play set!
Begin by cutting each cardboard roll in to sections. I like to vary the heights on these to make a Mama Cat, Papa Cat, and some kittens.
Smooch the top of each cardboard roll section to form the cat ears.
Cover each cardboard roll section with a layer of paint and allow it to dry completely.
Use gluestick to attach a piece of contrasting scrapbook paper for the belly of each cat. Use a black marker to draw eyes, a nose, mouth, and whiskers. So cute!!
