I save all the cardboard tubes from toilet paper to make crafts. Here is a kid-friendly craft using them to make a Christmas wreath. Add some paint and a ribbon and you're ready to hang it up.

Total Time: 45 minutes
Yield: 1 wreath
Supplies:
4 cardboard tubes
red and green paint
paint brush
scissors
red ribbon
Steps:
Paint two of your cardboard tubes green.
When completely dry, cut rings every 3/4 inch.
Paint the other two tubes red, dry, and cut.
Organize the rings so they alternate in colour; red, green, red, green.

Take your red ribbon and begin threading the rings on it.
Make sure you have several inches of ribbon left over so you can tie a big bow at the top of the wreath.
