Today we have the lovely - Maggy joining us from Red Ted Art! Red Ted Art is jam packed full of crafts perfect for children of all ages!! It's a blog that continues to inspire us - welcome Maggy!

We are all about super easy kids crafts over at Red Ted Art. One way to ensure a craft is easy is to forget the fancy-schmancy materials and use stuff right out of the recycling bin instead. And what recycled material does our bin always seem to be overflowing with? TP rolls. So, toilet paper roll crafts it is!

We've crafted so many fun things from plain old toilet paper rolls. They've been transformed into animals of all kids and puppets to put on shows with and even cute kids' accessories. And the kids get a giggle out of using a loo roll, too, don't they?! So I thought what better to share with you all today.
