Toilet Paper Fort

The elf spent the night building a castle out of toilet paper rolls, with an arched doorway, corner towers and two paper flags on top.

Instructions

Stand six rolls in a row on the floor or table as the castle wall.
Stack a second row on the ends, leaving a gap in the middle for the doorway.
Add one more roll on each front corner as towers.
Make two flags by taping paper triangles to drinking straws, and tuck them into the tower rolls.
Pose your elf peeking over the wall with its arms out.

Tip: The rolls go straight back into the bathroom in the morning, so nothing is wasted.
