Yesterday I showed you how to make a Glue Stick Man out of your recycled glue sticks. Today I’m going to continue showing you how to make toy figures out of recycled materials. In this post I’m going to show you how to make Cardboard Little People Figures. Just simply use pieces of used cardboard boxes. This craft is a great way to recycle those cardboard boxes that you would normally throw away. These Cardboard Little People Figures are fun to make…. almost as much fun as they will be to play with. So, let’s get started.
