You will need:

- sleeves from toilet paper;

- thin corrugated paper;

- ribbons;

- scissors;

- tinsel or rain.

Cut the toilet paper sleeve in half. Cut a rectangle of corrugated paper so large that it can be used to wrap the sleeve with enough margin to leave enough paper for the “ponytails”.

Wrap paper around the sleeve and tie one end with a ribbon.
