Materials You’ll Need:

  • Toilet paper rolls (Recycled materials!)
  • Scissors
  • Pencil
  • Paint (Any colors you love!)
  • Paintbrush

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1: Flatten the Toilet Paper Roll

Start by taking a toilet paper roll and gently flattening it. You can use your hands to squish it flat or press it with something heavy, like a book, to ensure it stays flattened. This will help shape the tulip petals later on.

Step 2: Draw a Tulip Shape

Once your roll is flattened, use a pencil to sketch the shape of a tulip on the flattened paper tube. You can draw a simple tulip with three petals or get creative with more intricate designs! The key is to make it look like the flower petals of a tulip.

Step 3: Cut Out the Tulip Shape

Using your scissors, carefully cut along the lines of the tulip shape you’ve drawn. This will form the petals of your flower. If you want, you can cut the top of each petal to create a sharper or more stylized look.

Step 4: Paint Your Tulips

Once you’ve cut out the tulip shape, it’s time to add some color! Use paint in your favorite colors—traditional tulip colors like red, yellow, or pink work great, but feel free to experiment with all kinds of shades. Allow the paint to dry completely before moving to the next step.

Step 5: Display Your Blooming Tulips!

Once your painted tulip is dry, it’s ready to display! You can make several tulips, glue them together to create a flower bouquet, or even attach them to a stem made from green pipe cleaners. Your DIY tulips are perfect for decorating your home or classroom!


The Toilet Paper Roll Tulip Craft is an excellent way to bring some spring cheer into your home while teaching kids the value of recycling. Whether you’re making a single tulip or a whole bouquet, this project is a great way to spend quality time with your little ones and watch their creativity bloom!
