Paint each toilet paper roll with bright colors. Mix and layer shades to make each house distinct. Let them dry completely.
Cut out door and window shapes using scissors or a craft knife. For extra detail, outline them with black marker or paint.
Create roofs by cutting circles or triangles from construction paper. Form them into cones or slanted roof shapes, then glue them on top of the rolls.
Add decorative elements like dots, stars, vines, or brick lines with smaller brushes or markers.
If desired, place an LED light inside each roll to make them softly glow at night.
