Princess Leia Paper Roll Doll Craft
As part of our Star Wars crafts series, today I’m sharing the Princess Leia paper roll with a free printable template. This is a fun and quick craft with endless imaginative play possibilities.
With Star Wars coming out with new movies and shows on Disney+, I thought it was time to create more characters in our May the 4th Be With You (Star Wars Day) craft series for Star Wars fans of all ages. And while adorable, the fierce Princess Leia is always needed when fighting the Dark Side.

Princess Leia Craft Idea
Here at Ruffles and Rain Boots, I have spent the last couple of weeks making several different Star Wars paper roll kids crafts. Being creative and using your imagination is the best part of being a kid and watching my little one work through building these skills is amazing.
This is one of my favorite Star Wars characters in the entire series; my favorite are the Ewoks, of course. Princess Leia is a character little girls always want to act out and my daughter is no exception. We even created Leia ears for her to take to Disney World!

Tips to Make Toilet Paper Roll Star Wars Crafts
- No princess is complete without a rouge to make her comedic lines fun. Be sure to make a cute paper roll Han Solo to go with the General.
- Princess Leia is a fun character and a pretty decent role model from Sci-Fi films. I love that she’s later a General, too: powerful and in charge while having epic hair are life goals.
- Change up Leia’s face to portray different moods to act out. Her signature exasperated smirk directed at Han is hilarious.
- Create a scene using a cardboard box to keep the imaginative play going. Want a Tatooine world scape? A couple of suns or a few moons and you’re done.
- You can even make a scene for the inside of the Death Star with a bit of gray construction paper. Poke holes and add in some colored holiday lights!
