![]() This Instructable is just one of hopefully many to come from Dover Intermediate School in Westlake, Ohio. It saves money, It is cheap and easy to do, and fun to make and you can find the things you need around you house. These are the reasons why I decided to do this craft. My target audience for this project is the people that struggle with not having or wanting to spend a lot of money on speakers or phone holders. Also spending money for expensive stuff that you can find around your house. The problem i’m solving is not having a phone holder or a speaker. The things you need are stuff you can find around your house. This creation is so great because if you ever need a speaker or phone holder it's cheap, quick, and easy. #Toilet paper holder how toI used the same technique of gluing the ends in place as I did for the yellow paper in the first few steps.įill your finished holder with pencils and other art supplies and voila! You’re all finished.Have you ever had the struggle of not having loud enough music for a party or a gathering? Or have you had the struggle of not having a phone holder? Well no more!! I’m going to teach you how to make a phone holder and a speaker from a cardboard toilet paper roll. Use hot glue to affix your little white ribbon around the bottom of the pencil holder so it wraps around the yellow paper surface and sits perpendicular to the pink base. Press this into the center of your larger foam circle to make the base of your pencil holder. I scattered mine randomly but I made sure to leave enough space along the bottom so I could add a little ribbon border later.Īpply hot glue around the very bottom edge of your toilet roll, on the cardboard rather than up on the yellow paper’s flat surface. Use your hot glue to stick the polka dots all around the toilet roll on its yellow paper base. You can stick it near its straight bottom edge so the waves make the roll a little taller the foam paper is stiff enough that it will keep its shape just fine. Use your hot glue to affix the waving shape around the top of your toilet roll. Draw a large circle to be the base of your pencil holder, several smaller circles to be polka dots, and a waving shape with a straight bottom edge for some embellishment around the top of your holder. Turn your pink sparkly foam paper over so you can use your pencil to draw on its white backing. Cut off any excess and glue this end down on top of the first so your roll is now entirely yellow. Wrap the strip all the way around the roll until the loose end meets back up with the glued one. This strip will be perfectly sized to the length of your toilet roll.Īpply glue down the whole length of your toilet roll and press one edge of the shorter ends of your yellow strip into it so the tops and bottoms of the paper and the roll line up even. Use this as a guide to cut a strip from the page all the way across. With your yellow paper sitting portrait, line the top edge of your toilet roll up against the top edge of the page and make a mark where the bottom edge of your toilet roll hits the paper.

We’re always stockpiling our empty toilet paper rolls for crafting purposes in my house, so I try to keep as many neat DIY ideas on hand as I can, that way the kids and I always have something to make together. Even for adults, the process is enjoyable because there are just so many different things you can make! For kids, the simplicity of just about every single one of those things is a lot of fun and also a change to learn. If you ask me, toilet paper roll crafts are the kind of classic project that will never not be awesome. ![]()
