Hi friends,
Today we’re bringing you these mini-robots made from recycled tp rolls. With a little paint, cute robot stickers, and some nuts, bolts, & washers, your kiddo can easily have some fun, imaginative play. We bolted these out in no time and got some nutty results! Ha. Check out these easy-to-make robots below.

The Steps
Paint the paper rolls in the desired color/s.
2. While the rolls dry, choose the stickers you’ll be using.
3. IF you would like to have movable parts: cut out the sticker, and very closely around the specific part you want movable. IF NOT, skip the cutting and move on to step 5.
4. Peel off the backing of the sticker, minus the portions behind the movable parts. IE. the arms, legs, anteneas.You’ll have to cut the backing on the movable parts, from the rest so that it can stay adhered to the sticker.
Some of the stickers had a 3D effect.
5. Apply a sticker to the paper roll. Optional: add a bit of hot glue to the back of the sticker to secure it better, avoid the movable parts.
6. Use hot glue to add nuts, bolts, and washers. Repeat with all the rolls.
That’s it!
4 out of 5 robots had moveable parts.
These were super easy to make and only took us about 15 min to finish all five.
The littles were so excited to see these! That’s a win for this mama = )
Happy crafting!
Amanda and Naomi
