#VALUE!
Empty toilet paper rolls might look like waste, but actually, they can be especially useful items for the home, office, garden, and even craft activities with the kids. Here are some creative and practical ideas for using the empty rolls:
1. Cable Organizer
Empty toilet paper rolls are perfect for organizing cables and cords. Simply roll up the cable, place it inside the roll, and write on each roll which cable is inside it. This will help keep drawers tidy and prevent tangles and mess.
2. Seedling Pots
Empty rolls make an excellent tool for growing small seedlings. Fill them with soil and plant seeds inside. When the seedlings grow, you can plant them in the ground along with the roll, which decomposes easily in the soil.
3. Pen and Pencil Holder
Decorate the paper rolls with colors, colorful papers, or stickers, and use them as a holder for pens, markers, or pencils. It’s a simple and decorative solution for the desk.
4. Small Waste Collector
Place an empty toilet paper roll in the kitchen or on the desk and use it to collect small waste items like wrappers, paper scraps, or small food leftovers. When it’s full, you can simply throw it away or empty it.
5. Knife Protection in the Kitchen
Use the rolls to cover sharp knives in the drawer. It’s an easy and inexpensive solution that protects the blades and your hands when you’re looking for something in the drawer.
