There are few items that nearly everyone will have in their home.
I think it’s safe to assume that the majority of homes in American have either Toilet Paper or Paper Towels in their home, or both.
Which means, there are plenty of Paper Rolls being thrown out daily. I wanted to find out ways we can reuse these paper rolls and flex our DIY skills. I’m all about repurposing!
Pinterest has so many great ideas to reuse paper rolls. More than what I thought I would find.
I want to share my findings with you! Below you will find 20 Brilliant ways to use Paper Rolls (both Paper Towel and Toilet Paper Rolls!).

One thing that I think you’re missing is that you can spray-paint them silver, and wear would-be-discarded boxes also spray-painted silver and have fun and active, but very safe robot sword fights. Of course, more traditional folks might be frightened off by the sight of robots — and not just normal robots, but robots bent on attacking each other with swords — so I would certainly keep this sort of play inside the home.
Neat! Reusing what you already have is a strong personal finance tool. It also reminds me that often we already have what we are seeking. Today you have a significant amount to be grateful for.
Take a moment and look around you. Your loved ones are near. You have a job that pays you. You have a roof over your head.
While the paper towel idea seems small it has a larger point. Creativity is often taking what we already have and using it differently. It can be loads of fun!
I love this!! This list is way better than the guitars I use to make with rubber bands. I think I’m going to try the Faux Brass Wall Clock. Thanks!
For my wedding I used paper towel rolls and made 200 napkins rings. I hot glued burlap around them and a piece of lace. They turned out great.
They sound like they turned out awesome! What a cute idea! Never thought of using them for a wedding, but I made christmas silverware holders for my family dinner this holiday.. Very cool!
