Very cute! I’d substitute the toilet roll with paper towel roll personally

Oh my, this is the cutest toilet roll octopus I’ve ever seen (and I’ve seen a few in my time!) Haha no I haven’t.

This is so cute. I have started keeping all of our toilet rolls so I can make things with my toddler. He will enjoy this!
