All you need to make Star Wars Roll Out characters are the printed template and a toilet paper roll. Print and cut out the templates, color with markers or crayons, draw the details, and glue it all together. You’re ready to roll!

Get Started!

Rey

Step 1: Print the template and cut the body, face, and Rey’s hair shapes.

Step 2: Begin by tracing the large circle on the light brown paper and cut it out.

Step 3: Next, trace the face template on the tan paper, and cut it out. Do the same for Rey’s hair on the dark brown paper.

Step 4: Cut two strips from the light brown paper (or a different brown if you have one).

Step 5: Cut two thin strips of the black paper and two thin strips of the dark brown paper.

Step 6: Cut a half-circle bag shape from the black paper.

Step 7: Glue the light brown paper strips in an X across Rey’s body. Glue the two smaller brown strips, the straps, on top. Trim the excess around the circle shape when the glue is dry.

Step 8: Next, use the hole punch to cut out two pink circles and two brown circles.

Step 9: Glue Rey’s hair to the top of her head. Glue the two small blue circles for her eyes and the pink circles for her cheeks.

Step 10: Glue the straps to the bag and glue it across Rey’s body.

Step 11: Draw eyelashes and eyebrows on Rey’s face.

Step 12: Glue the back of Rey’s body to the toilet paper roll tube, lining up the bottom edges. Let dry.

Step 13: Glue Rey’s head to the tube, overlapping the body slightly. Let dry and Rey is complete.

Ben Solo

Step 1: Print the template and cut the body, face, and Ben’s hair shapes.

Step 2: Begin by tracing the large circle on the white paper and cut it out. Repeat on the navy and red paper.

Step 3: Next, trace the face template on the tan paper, and cut it out. Cut a small half-circle shape from the same paper for Ben’s collarbone.

Step 4: Trace and cut out Ben’s hair from the black paper.

Step 5: Cut a strip from the brown paper for Ben’s belt.

Step 6: Cut the red circle in half and glue it to the bottom of the white circle.

Step 7: Glue the brown strip across the top of the red half-circle. Let dry and trim the excess around the circle.

Step 8: Cut the navy circle in half. Cut the two sides of one half circle the same size to make Ben’s vest; trim the bottom edge slightly.

Step 9: Glue the two vest pieces on the top, lining up the curved edges. Glue the tan collarbone piece in the middle between them.

Step 10: Punch two circles from the brown paper and two circles from the pink paper.

Step 11: Glue Ben’s hair to the top of the face shape, and his eyes and cheek circles just below.

Step 12: Glue the back of Ben’s body to the toilet paper roll tube, lining up the bottom edges. Let dry.

Step 13: Glue the face to the top of the roll, lining it up with the body, and your little Ben Solo is ready to roll.

Chewbacca

Step 1: Print the template and cut the body, head, and Chewie’s face shapes.

Step 2: Begin by tracing the large circle and head shape on the brown paper and cut them out.

Step 3: Next, trace the face template on the tan paper, and cut it out.

Step 4: Cut a strip of the light brown paper; this will be Chewbacca’s bandolier.

Step 5: Punch two holes in the grey paper and one hole in the black paper for Chewie’s eyes and nose.

Step 6: Glue the face, eyes, and nose on the head shape.

Step 7: Next, cut cloud-like shapes out of the tan paper, big enough to overlap over the edges of the circle. Glue them to Chewbacca’s body.

Step 8: Trim around the edges of the body circle to clean it up.

Step 9: Cut several small rectangles from the grey paper and a thin strip of brown paper.

Step 10: Glue the grey rectangles evenly along the bandolier strip. Glue the thin brown strip in the middle and let dry.

Step 11: Glue the bandolier across Chewbacca’s body.

Step 12: Glue the back of Chewbacca’s body to the toilet paper roll tube, lining up the bottom edges. Let dry.

Step 13: Glue the face to the top of the roll, lining it up with the body, and Chewbacca is complete!

BB-8

Step 1: Print the template and cut the body and BB-8’s head shape.

Step 2: Trace the body and head shapes on the white paper and cut out.

Step 3: Cut a small circle from the black paper. Punch a circle from the same black sheet. Glue the two circles on the head shape for BB-8’s sensors.

Step 4: Next, cut very thin strips from the orange and grey paper.

Step 5: Glue the grey strips at the top and bottom of BB-8’s head. Trim the edges when the glue is dry.

Step 6: Glue thin orange strips on either side of the bigger black circle. Trim the edges when the glue is dry.

Step 7: Cut two very small and thin strips of white paper for BB-8’s antenna. Glue a tiny piece of black paper to one antenna and glue them both to the top of BB-8’s head.

Note: The following steps to make the designs on BB-8’s body can be tricky for young crafters. They can use orange and grey markers to draw the shapes instead!

Step 8: Cut three circles, about 3 centimeters in diameter, from the orange paper. Cut a hole in the center of each circle as evenly as possible.

Step 9: Cut small strips of the orange paper and cut them into tiny rectangles.

Step 10: Cut three small circles from the grey paper, about 1 centimeter in diameter. 

Step 11: Glue four orange rectangles around the inside circle you cut in each orange circle. Let the glue dry.

Step 12: Glue the grey circles on the white circle for BB-8’s body.

Step 13: Glue the orange circles on top of the grey circles you glued. Let dry.

Step 14: Glue the back of BB-8’s body to the toilet paper roll tube, lining up the bottom edges. Let dry.

Step 15: Glue the head to the top of the roll, lining it up with the body, and BB-8 is complete!
