Toilet paper is one of the indispensable items in human life. There are two types of toilet paper: with and without cores. For the type with cores, what do you do with the core after using up the paper? Most people would immediately throw them away, but with a few simple steps, you can turn this seemingly useless item into a masterpiece that will be very helpful in your life.
Let’s explore some handy tips related to toilet paper cores.
1. Use to clean window gaps and grooves
The vacuum cleaner works great and can handle most types of dust, but when it comes to small gaps, it can be difficult for the large-sized suction tube to reach inside for cleaning. In this case, you just need to use the toilet paper core, squeeze one end to fit the gap, and thread the vacuum cleaner hose through the other end to easily suck up the dust.
2. Make study materials
With just toilet paper cores, kids can creatively use their hands and imagination to create cute handmade products, such as pen holders, wall hangings, etc. It’s really convenient.
3. Simple flyer storage box
In bookstores and places where flyers or wallpaper are sold, you can easily find toilet paper cores used to hold rolls of paper. It’s a convenient and economical way to store them.
4. Organize various types of cables
Various types of cables, such as power cables, network cables, and phone headsets, can be much more organized if stored in toilet paper cores. Even with a bunch of cables, you can arrange them neatly without any mess.
5. Bird food dispenser
Just spread a layer of peanut butter or honey on the paper tube, then roll different types of seeds and nuts on top. It really looks like an attractive candy tree for the birds.
6. Mobile phone speaker
Just punch a hole on the toilet paper core with the length equal to the size of your phone, insert a thumbtack to secure it, and you can turn it into a simple sound amplifier. But this method may only be suitable for mobile phones with speakers at the bottom.
7. Simple seedling tray
Fill each paper tube with soil, then add seeds, and place them in a tray. This way, you can create individual plant bulbs, isolate the growth environment of each plant, avoid root entanglement, and make soil replacement much easier.
8. Use as a tool for drawing
Preschool children will be very excited about this creative tool.
9. Make toys that children love
