Glow In The Dark TP Roll Lanterns

NurtureStore shares a great way to use toilet paper rolls
by turning them into lanterns that glow in the dark. You can make
an owl, bat, kitty, or even come up with your own design.

Adventure In A Box. Although these are highly detailed, the
method can be used with kids and still yield really cool results.
