Toilet Paper Storage Idea
Toilet Paper Storage Idea
Toilet Paper Storage Gift Idea
About this project -
A long-lasting, easy and useful gift idea to make for those that don't have
a
lot of storage in their bathroom and can be made to match any decor.
This project is rated EASY to do.
Supplies -
Three empty two-pound size coffee cans
One plastic lid that fits the cans
Washable wallpaper or contact paper that will coordinate with the room's
decor
Glue
Scissors
Miscellaneous items for decorating (silk flowers, doily, ribbons, etc.) This
is optional.
Sturdy Shipping Tape
Can opener
Pair of pliers
Four standard size rolls of Tissue Paper.
Project how to -
1. Remove the bottoms from two of the cans with your can opener. Leave the
bottom on the third can.
2. Make sure there are no sharp edges for scratching or cutting hands. Use
the
pliers to help bend in sharp jagged metal edges.
3. Carefully tape each edge of each can for extra protection.
4. Stack the two open-ended cans on top of the can with the bottom still in
it
(bottom sides down).
5. Tape each adjoining edge together by wrapping tape all the way around
each
joint on the outside of the cans and also on the inside of the cans. (Make
sure you do a smooth wrap on the taping and test to make sure the lid fits.)
6. Cut your washable wallpaper or contact paper to fit around the stack of
cans. It is better to have it in one piece and edges of paper can overlap so
be generous with your cutting. (approximately 19 1/4" X 16 1/2")
7. Glue the paper around the stack of cans securely.
8. Decorate the plastic lid by gluing on a piece of matching paper cut to
the
size of the lid.
9. Silk flowers, Ribbons, a crocheted Doily, Etc., can, also, be glued to
the
top of the plastic lid if desired.
10. Put four rolls of tissue paper into the holder.
