This creative toilet paper roll pinwheel craft comes from a Japanese website. The cardboard tube is strong, yet flexible and already has a curved shape, perfect for a pinwheel blade. Recycle a toilet paper roll into this fun, old-fashioned toy. The website features 6, 3, and 5 bladed versions of the pinwheel plus short demonstration videos. Also great for an Earth Day craft.
