Oh man, do I get bawled out anytime I try to throw a toilet paper or paper towel roll away. a is queen...er...princess of making things out of them. Some ideas from her include binoculars. (Take two, glue them together, punch holes, add string.), use one as a megaphone, or make Barbie furniture. We've made chairs and footstools using a tube, some fabric, ad cotton balls, many a time.
ReplyDeleteAs far as adult crafts go, I've seen them made into napkin rings, pumpkin banners, pencils cups...you name it.
Personally, it's an extended family tradition to make an angel for the top of the Christmas tree and glue it to a roll. Works perfectly!
Happy crafting!

The endless uses for the toilet paper roll..... I love the napkin holders that my kids and I made for our "Thanksgiving" table one year {I'll be showing them off real soon}

ReplyDeleteOh.... and there's always the practical use of a toilet paper roll.... slip the roll over a wrapped up extention cord to keep it nice and tidy :D

ReplyDeleteIt was fun and turned out so cute! Hope I win!
Hi there, I haven't done anything crafty with toilet paper rolls since my boys were in school. I do use parts of wrapping paper rolls (because they seem a little heavier) to keep my plastic bags organized in the garage and the thinner vegetable bags organized in the kitchen.
