Christie at ScottChristieCoriCassiCali submitted this idea that she found at Love Stems - these are flowers made from toilet paper rolls! The Love Stem family makes them and has delivered hundreds to nursing homes and hospitals and anywhere else that the occupants may need a little cheering up, isn't that wonderful?! Christie has pictures of how they made theirs and Love Stems gives you all the details and history of their idea. Love Stems accepts contributions of supplies or you could also carry on this idea in your area. The flower is easy to make for all ages and you're recycling at the same time; this is a great project for everyone involved!
wow! That's really cool! What a great idea! I would never guess those are toilet paper rolls by the picture. Great craft to do with kids.

I love these...they're adorable, flexible and any age group could participate in making these. They sound like a wonderful craft for May Day, actually!
