Instructions:

• Step 1. Glue the toilet paper tubes to the ends of the longer piece of cardboard as shown.

• Step 2. On each of the 8” x 3” pieces of cardboard, make a bend at one end about an inch long. Flip over the 11” x 3” piece with the toilet paper tubes attached. Use the glue gun to adhere the bent edges of the short pieces to each end of the long piece.
