I'm Batty!

 

Toilet Paper rolls?

I swore I'd never save these...but stumbled across this on pinterest!

 

 Knowing that I was destined to make them...I started to stockpile the TP rolls

I cut a piece of black paper  the tallness of my roll...mine was 4.5"

...but they are a variety of sizes, so measure before cutting!

The paper had to be long enough to go around once and overlap about an inch.

4.5 by 7"

Then I applied a generous amount of adhesive...

and rolled it on not super carefully!

 I did 6 for a party...they were at all the placemats.

 Then, to make sure they stayed rolled/taped...and to add some

Halloween Frankenstein appeal...I stapled the seam.

 I used an old gift bag with subtle black on black pinstripes

to make the wings.

Oh, the things you can make with garbage!

I used the edges...this allowed me to cut 2 sets of wings 

at a time that were automatically reversed of each 

other due to the folding in the bag...genius!

 Glorious little wings!

Here's my wing pattern!

Okay, I stuck the wings on with a large glue dot,
but any adhesive would probably work.

Then I used my trusty old
uni-ball Signo white paint pen to draw on the face...

Then with scraps of the black paper I cut little ears...
I cut two triangles with a band across for easy gluing...
I just eye-balled this part!  Not symmetrical at all!

Ahh, so cute!

Then I got this gorgeous little gift bags and put a
handful of peanut m&m's in them...
(2 handful's wouldn't fit in the tube!)

Tuck them inside for the cutest little Halloween table decor!

What a hit!

We love them so much, over the weekend we will attempt a 

myriad of other Halloween TP roll creations!
