How To Make A Toilet Paper Roll Ladybug

1. Cut a rectangular piece of black cardstock to fit around the paper roll. Overlap the edges of the paper slightly and glue or tape along the seam.

2. Glue the googly eyes to the top of the paper roll.

3. Draw a smile on with a black marker. You won’t be able to see the smile very well so you can skip this step or use a white crayon or chalk marker.
