For all big and small Prickel professionals and craft fans, it's now time for a creative-tastic diving mission. With our upcycling mobile, you can transform toilet paper rolls into a colorful underwater world in no time at all. It's an easy way to brighten up your child's room and do something good for the environment at the same time.
Grab your craft supplies and dive into an exciting underwater adventure full of colors, shapes and imagination together with Dachshund, Dino and Mr. Octopus.
Transfer the motifs to the colored paper and cut them out too.
Paint the toilet roll for the submarine and the octopus with a matching color.
To help with the submarine, you can attach the window templates to the toilet paper roll. Place the prickle base underneath and trace the template with the prickle tool.
Glue the individual parts of the dino together and equip the submarine with the corresponding parts. A bottle cap and chenille wire are perfect for the porthole.
Cut approx. 1 cm wide strips into the toilet paper roll as tentacles for Mr. Octopus. Prick holes in the tentacles again using the carpet pad and the prickle pen. As an authentic extra, you can roll up the arms with a pencil.
First stick the hat for the octopus onto the base. Then glue the colored parts onto the hat and then onto Mr. Octopus with eyes, cheeks and mouth.
For the diving dachshund, first stick the cut-out scuba tank and helmet onto the base. Glue the parts of the dachshund together. Attach the two halves of the dachshund's body by making 1 cm long cuts in the toilet paper roll.
You can also embroider the small fish, shells and starfish. Then attach them with embroidery thread.
Attach an embroidery thread to each of the three toilet paper rolls and hang all the underwater figures you have made on the ring or stick.
