Cardboard Tube Black Cats

11

Upcycle your empty toilet paper rolls into sleek, mystical black cats that stand tall on any flat surface. This craft begins by pressing down the top rim of the cardboard tube to create two pointed, natural-looking cat ears. Kids can then paint the entire tube in matte black paint, transforming a simple household item into an elegant feline silhouette.

To bring the cat to life, use bright green or yellow construction paper to cut out glowing, almond-shaped eyes. Add thin whiskers made from black wire or stiff thread, and a long, curling tail cut from black cardstock attached to the back of the tube. These charming black cats look fantastic lined up on a windowsill, guarding your home from any unwanted spooky spirits.
