Instructions for making a May Day pole out of an empty paper towel roll.
Materials Needed:
Paper Towel Roll
Cardboard
Paint
Ribbon or Streamers
Tape
Instructions:
Paint the paper towel roll a bright color. Set it aside to dry. Tape one end of your painted paper towel roll onto a small piece of cardboard so it stands up straight. Wrap colorful ribbon around your May pole and secure with tape. Cut lengths of ribbon to hang on the outside of your May Pole (see Picture below). Tape these on the inside of the top edge of the paper towel roll. If you like, you can also decorate your May pole with flowers!
