Toilet Paper Roll Minions
When I read the prompt When Pinterest Comes to Life on The Nectar Collective I originally thought I was going to make something much more . . . cool. I wasn’t exactly thinking I would be linking up a kids craft, but hey, why not!
A few weeks ago Raeca asked if we could make a craft together (so sweet, love her), so I let her look at my with the kids board on Pinterest and once she saw these minions (or min-ee-ons like she calls them) she knew that’s what she wanted to make.
Of course she needed to branch out and make a pink girl minion as well so we jazzed her up with a flower in her “hair”.
You can see the full tutorial here if you are interested in making your own minions. 😉
Just a heads up: after this week I’ll no longer be offering ad swaps, at this moment they are currently booked out until December 1st so if you were interested in getting in on a free space this is your chance!
All the above photos were taken with the Canon 5D Mark II and 28mm 1.8 lens.
Do you have a favorite craft you like to do with kids?
I’d love to hear it!

Our boys made these with their Nana a couple weeks ago! She’s always bringing a craft or something for them to do! Yours are so cute!!!

Oh so cool!! We had a lot of fun making these, now every time she sees and empty toilet paper roll she wants to make another one.

This is SO cute! I’m babysitting today and this would have been a fun craft to do with her. Next time! When I babysit, I love to bake or cook something with their help. It’s fun!
Chantel Klassen
I love that! You should totally do this the next time you babysit, it was fun and super simple.

She really does, for the first couple of days she had to sleep with them in her bed. 🙂
