DIY 7 of 26: Never Left Hanging - T.P. holder

There is nothing worse than being over at someone's house and going to use the facilities, not realizing that there is no toilet paper until it is too late!!! I have a lovely little powder room with absolutely ZERO storage in it. So being I had to find a way to supply much needed TP for my guest without it being an eyesore. I thought you may like to make a TP holder of your own? It is quick (15mins), easy(it took 15mins, right?), and super cheap(about 3 dollars), here is how:

Supplies:

• Four rolls of toilet paper
• Four decorative papers
• Ruler
• Scissors
• Twine
• Clear packing tape

#1: Cut three pieces of twine, each about 6-7feet long. Knot the three pieces together at the top, then braid the entire length of the twine, knotting at the end as well.

#2: Cut the paper into strips, 2.75inches wide. Depending on the length of your paper and thickness of your toilet paper rolls you may have splice pieces together to make it long enough to wrap around the roll of T.P. and overlap about 0.5-1inch.

#3: On one end of the paper put a piece of packing tape lined up on the edge. Trim the extra off of the sides.

#4: On the other end place a piece of packing tape, cut narrower than the paper, half on and half off the paper.

#5: Wrap the paper around the T.P. roll and attach tape in the back. Place the piece of tape that is hanging off of the paper to the tape that is secured on the opposite end. This allows you to remove it and wrap another roll without ripping the paper!

#6: String the first roll on the twine like a bead.

#7: Bring the two ends of twine together and thread together through the center of the second, third, and forth rolls.

#8: Tie a bow at the top and hang from any hook or nail in the bathroom.

Here is how mine turned out...

Hope you enjoy this little project and never leave your guests hanging in the bathroom!
