DIY fun for families

Toilet paper tubes are so much more versatile than I remember them being as a kid. We might have made puppets or something with them, but we sure never made Christmas ornaments, stylish room art or even a wall hanging like this one. It looks super simple to make, and you could add color or even patterned paper to make more eye-catching designs. Each person could make a hanging for every room, or you could even make a set to feature prominently in your home.

Decorate your own Valentine’s Day gift box together. This idea is another really simple one that might just take a bit of time overall, but wouldn’t it be so worth it to see your recipient’s face light up upon receiving it after all of your hard work? You can come up with so many other cool ideas, too. If you do, be sure to share them below!

Looking for some cool Valentine’s Day fashion accessories? Make this fun DIY Valentine infinity scarf for just a couple of dollars.

Make a really cool DIY notebook out of a cereal box. How fun are these? They’d make excellent nature journals, travel journals or sketchbooks.

Need some award ribbons for your own awards ceremony or art show? Skip buying them and make them with scrap materials you have around the house.

Make some bracelets or armbands out of puffy paint. These would be great for Halloween costumes (Ninja Turtle armbands!). Depending on how fancy you make them, they’d even look nice for dance accessories.
