🌱 2. Seed Starters for Your Garden

Toilet paper rolls make biodegradable seed-starting pots.
Just cut slits in one end, fold to create a bottom, fill with soil, and plant seeds. When your seedlings are ready, plant the whole thing directly into the ground — the cardboard breaks down naturally.


🎁 3. DIY Gift or Treat Boxes

Need a last-minute gift wrap idea? Flatten the tube, fold in the ends, and decorate with washi tape or ribbon.
Perfect for small gifts, candies, or party favors.


🐦 4. Easy Bird Feeder

Spread peanut butter on the outside of the roll, then roll it in birdseed. Slide it onto a branch or string, and voilà — an instant bird feeder the kids will love making too.


🎨 5. Kids’ Crafts Galore

Toilet paper tubes are a staple for kids’ craft projects:

  • Mini binoculars
  • Rocket ships
  • Animals
  • Puppets
    All you need is glue, paint, googly eyes, and imagination.

🧦 6. Sock or Scarf Organizer

Slide a roll into a drawer and roll socks or scarves inside.
It keeps them from getting bunched up and makes your drawers instantly more organized.


🔥 7. Fire Starters for Camping or Grilling

Stuff toilet rolls with dryer lint or shredded paper, wrap in newspaper, and use as fire starters for your fireplace, BBQ, or campfire. They light easily and burn well.


🎄 8. Holiday Decor on a Budget

With a bit of paint and sparkle, these rolls can become:

  • DIY Christmas ornaments
  • Advent calendar boxes
  • Halloween monsters
  • Easter bunnies

Crafty and cost-effective!


🧼 9. Protect Wrapping Paper Rolls

Cut a toilet paper tube down one side and wrap it around your gift wrap roll to keep it from unraveling in storage.
