Tips and Tricks

  • Add a beautiful ribbon. The heart can also be used as a pendant.

How it is done:

  • Cover your work surface, gather your materials, and put on an old smock if necessary. Flatten the toilet paper rolls and draw a semicircle on the top of each roll with a pencil. Cut the rolls along the pencil line.
  • Use the KiDS Little Artist paints and tools to create your own designs. To keep the colors separate, it's best to allow for short drying times.
  • Once the toilet paper rolls are colored and dried, the scissors can be cut into three equal pieces. Do not cut all the way through!
  • Now weave the two rolls together. It takes a bit of skill at first, but you will soon get the hang of it.
