How to make cardboard tube people

Little Vampire
 
 

Recently I found a easy way to make heads for our cardboard tube people. Recycling at the same time. I scrunched up some paper into a ball and covered with a scrap of white material. A simple idea that any child could have fun with.
This little Vampire was one of our Halloween decorations , looking for more idea's check out our Recycling Page.
