Check out these Mummy Treat Containers, They are a super easy Halloween craft. This was meant to be a “last minute” craft idea in case you needed something quickand easy. However, I wonder how many people save toilet paper rolls like me? How last minute can it be if you need a slew of toilet papers rolls? So if you are my kindred spirit and have your toilet paper rolls waiting for that perfect craft here it goes. It is really so simple it doesn’t need instructions.
Fill your toilet paper roll with treats. Wrap white crepe paper from a roll around the toilet paper holder to keep your goodies in (at least three times around). Glue two eyes on the front.
Now fold the crepe paper in half and begin wrapping your mummy
Instead of the toilet paper roll, I’m going to use Crystal Light containers I’ve been hoarding and hand them out as teacher gifts!
Fantastic! THank you!
I love these. I made them a couple of years ago when my son was in preschool.
What a cute idea! I love the little eyes…adorable!
Ha, ha, ha. I have to admit that I am one of those people who saves tp rolls for no reason. I have three boys and I keep saying were going to make something grand. I usually just end up giving them to my son’s preschool class. The mummys are a great idea.
With all the homecomings that happened, you should have extra rolls somewhere. How cute!
What a great idea! We make “party poppers” every year for New Years Eve with toilet paper rolls. I stole the idea from a teacher that made them for a holiday celebration at school. We fill them with treats, use multi-colored tissues & ribbons tied at each end. At midnight… we pop them open. We bring them along to parties every year & they are always a hit! If you just stay home to celebrate that are a fun thing to do too!! 🙂
How did you know I had TP rolls waiting for a craft?! Ha ha. I’ve starting reading your blog and I LOVE it. It is inspiring and I love all the great ideas. Thanks!
Awesome idea!
I made something like that last year, this year I took a white bag and wrappe it up with treats inside. I’ll be back on my blog tomorrw, been on a break. Love your site.
I’m new to your blog and just had to comment…these are absolutely adorable! And yes, like you I usually have at least a bagful of rolls in the closet…they’re too good to throw away. lol Thanks for the great idea!
What a cute idea! My son will love this today!
this is perfect…i am glad i am not the only one with a box full of toilet paper rolls (& paper towel rolls, lids, yogurt containers, weird bits of this & that)….we will be making mummies after school today! thanks for the cute idea!
You should see the stash of TP rolls I’ve collected over just the past week! LOL
So easy, cute, and recyclable! 🙂
