As soon as I saw a wreath made out of toilet paper rolls, I knew it had to be tried. It's too weird and too cheap (free) for me to ignore. I used this idea, but also found this, this, and this made from paper towel/toilet paper tubes. I even saw Christmas ornaments and gift wrap made from them! Who knew there were so many tutorials devoted to this kind of thing? I think I said, "Are you kidding me?" every time I pinned one.
I cut them up the way the instructions read, but I didn't meticulously measure them like the writer did. I mean, they're toilet paper rolls...
I shaped the wreath around a salad plate like she suggested.
I'm not sure why Sky wanted to take this picture. I'm also not sure why I look so serious. I found the whole thing really amusing, actually.
I glued them all together but thought it had a slightly odd shape, so I decided to throw on a couple flowers at the last second. (Whether they look like flowers is debatable, but Millie thought they were.)
Done.
I hung it on a door, as you would most wreathes. But something just wasn't right...
So I found a place a bit more...organic for it. And I snickered like a 12 year old the entire time.

So cute! I love where you ended up putting it as well! I would laugh too! :) I wonder how they would look if you took a little ink or paint or something and just "dyed" the edges...could be cute!
Holy Cow that is too cute!!! You are so creative!
I was going to suggest painting them too. LOVE that it gets hung in the bathroom :) LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!! Awesome job!
very cute!...great job!
I made flowers with the boys out of old toilet paper rolls. We painted them - and you can't tell they used to reside in a bathroom.
I love that your put it in the bathroom - that's perfect! Such a fun wreath and great use of toilet paper rolls!
That is the best thing I've seen all day. Granted, it's only 7:30 am, but still. My bathroom now seems completely lacking in personality in comparison. This is really a fun idea!
LOL! Perfect! I really like the flowers you added. :)
hhahaha the best part about this is the last line.. I would totally giggle like a 12 year old the whole time because I did when I saw the pics!! hahaha I def am going to have to try and save up some toilet paper rolls if I can and make this!
oh this looks fabulous! looks like something you'd pay big bucks for at Pier 1:) love the cheeky hang-up spot, too.
I LOVE IT! The extra flowers you added are perfect. Great job.
That's so cute. The last part made me giggle!
Nice! I'm starting to think I need a hot glue gun to start making stuff!
yep, i'm laughing.
that's hilarious.
and i totally wouldn't measure them either. ;)
Oh. My. Lord. I am dying!!! Ha ha, "organic" hahaha!
You outdid yourself on this one. It only makes sense to hang it there, but I never would have thought of it myself! Thank you!
I love the way that the toilet paper rolls look like leaves when folded and flattened a little!
look at the ring bling blingin! hahah . :)
I love that you hung this in the bathroom, it's hilarious! Laurie emailed me about this tute and I'm so glad she did- I love it! And I would love to link to this post if you didn't mind.
What a GREAT idea! I think I may have to do this now too :) Love your blog - found it from Christy @ Skinned Knees :)
I love this, and the placement is perfect!
