Queen of Hearts Toilet Paper Roll Craft

The Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland is a simple color, cut and paste craft that uses a toilet paper roll as a base to give it a three dimensional effect.

Materials:

• a tp roll,
• printer,
• glue,
• scissors,
• something to colour with
• a piece of paper

Instructions:

• Print out the template of choice -- template 2 is optional
   
• Colour the pieces as appropriate and cut them out.
   
• Glue the large rectangular piece around the toilet paper tube.
   
• If using template 2 (the skirt), form it into a cone and slide it over the toilet paper roll at this time. You can use a bit of glue around the "belt area" to hold it on, but I usually just let it sit on loosely.
   
• Glue the head onto the top of the tp roll.
   
• Glue the crown onto the top of the head.
   
• Glue the hearts onto the front of the dress.
   
• Glue the arms on the side.
   
• Glue the feet onto the bottom of the tp roll, bending the tabs to make a 3D effect.
   
• Glue the sceptre into one of the hands.
   

Templates:

• Close the template window after printing to return to this screen.
   
• Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
