What you will need
At least two toilet paper rolls (duh)
Scissors
Glue
I hope these instructions will help you to create beautiful mandalas and relax during the calming process of creation <3
Step One
Flatten and cut one toilet paper roll into eight equal slices. Usually it's easier to cut a bunch of them right away so you have enough crafting material, but if you want you can create a small mandala from only two rolls as well :)
Step Two
Fold one slice in half to create a V-shape. Then glue it inside an unfolded slice to create a "filled slice". Again, for convenience's sake you might want to make many filled slices right away, so divide all your toilet paper roll slices in two. Half of them will be the V-shapes and half the slices where you glue the folded Vs to.
Step Three
Glue eight filled slices together. The glue should be applied on the outside surface of the slices according to the dotted line in the image above. If you decided to do bunch of filled slices at once this step is really rewarding!
And you are done!
In the picture above you can see a few different variations of the toilet paper roll mandala. You can always build up your small mandalas by adding more filled or non-filled slices to the exterior (heck, why not the interior as well!) of your creation, only sky is the limit! I invite you to create new ways of twisting and folding the slices, make the mandala your own!
If you decide to make these, please post a picture of your creation in the comments below! :)
