Gumball Machine Tube Craft Printable

Hand out this nostalgic looking gumball machine to all your friends for Valentine's Day, add the message with a little string and you're all set to "chews" your Valentine! I wanted to create a totally different and fun theme for this tube craft printable and what better than a gumball machine, I love the shape, it's perfect for a toilet tube. Kids will love making their gumball machine including the part where they fill it with treats to hand out to all of their classmates.
