These turned out really nice and its great for little favors. Just fill it up with little favor items like, candies, tattoos, crayons, etc.
You'll need:
--------------
- Cardboard tubes from the paper towel rolls.
- Dollies (You can use anything to decorate these little packets, ribbons, lace, twine, etc)
- Twine.
Steps:
-------
- Cut the cardboard tubes to the size you want your packets to be.
- At one end of the tube with your finger press the edge, so it makes a little dent, just like the picture below.
- And then close that end of the tube by making another dent just like the picture below.
- Using the open end of the tube, fill it up with goodies and close that end too, just like you closed the other end by making two dents.
- That's it. Now its time to decorate your little packets. I decorated mine by placing half a dolly and tying a twine around it. You can use ribbons, flowers or whatever you like to make it pretty..
Priyam! These are absolutely adorable...really cute :) what a great way to reuse those cardboard tubes.

I love the idea of turning toilet paper rolls into gift boxes! This is so neat, and pretty with the paper doily as an embellishment. I picked this as one of my features at this week's Snickerdoodle Create Bake Make Link Party, which is now live.
