Toilet paper roll face sculptures

So, I saw these cool faces made from toilet paper rolls and thought I'd give them a try.  Here are my first three attempts.




Here are some links to the originals that I saw:

I like the one in the middle best :)

Thanks to Noah and his amazing usage of at least a roll of tp a day...we have endless amounts of empty rolls to create to silly faces!

Pretty cool. I'll have to try my hand at it. Our boys too have the magic ability to make TP disappear.

Do you have any of these toilet paper roll faces for sale? I would definitely buy some. If so can you e-mail me pictures of the ones you have. Contact me at Bunnylove2780@yahoo.com
Thanks

I've only made these 3 plus one other. I'll see if I can get around to building some more. I'll put them up on ETSY if your interested.
Currently the shop is empty.

Do you think this would be possible for high school students to produce? How much time do you estimate it took you to make one? The colors are great!

aarastas said...

Yes, these were my first attempts and I think I spent around a half hour on each, mostly experimenting. The coloring is just water color then I sprayed over with varnish.

How did you paint the toilet paper?

Katinka, These are cardboard toilet paper rolls. I painted with water color and finished with spray varnish. If you make some post a link, I'd love to see them.
