Inside the cylinder you can place sweets, a small detail, a papyrus with a nice message and many things you want to give with love to a special person, it is unique for this special date: Mother’s Day or even though for any occasion will be a nice and funny surprise.
We show you how it is done in our video:

- Two cardboard tubes at least 21cm long. You can use two rolls of kitchen paper or join two tubes of toilet paper (4 rolls).
- A bigger roll like that of the Pringles chips. If you do not have, you can make 6 pieces with cereal cardboard: for each one you cut two strips of 23.2cm x 3.5cm and you paste them together. The diameter should be of 7.3cm approximately. You repeat same procedure for another 2 smaller pieces with 23.2cm x 2cm strips.
- White glue and hot silicone
