Toilet Paper Roll Wall Art

Okay guys, hear me out. I saw this wall decor at a friend's, made entirely out of TOILET PAPER ROLLS. Crazy, right? Here's what you gotta do: collect like, a hundred rolls, then flatten 'em, cut'em up into lil' bands, and start gluing them into shapes. Flowers, geometric patterns, you name it. Paint 'em gold for that 'luxurious' look, because nothing screams high class like toilet cardboard on your walls. Tried it, and my cat won't stop trying to tear it down. Thought it'd look chic, but just ended up looking... well, crappy. 😂 Never again, y'all.

Look, it's cool that you're giving recycling a shot, but less is sometimes more. Maybe a single toilet paper roll could serve as a minimalist statement piece. No cat's gonna bother with one solitary roll, right? 😆 And it still tells the world you're eco-conscious.

Next time go for silver, it's the new gold. 😉 But srsly, this making me think twice about my 'egg carton chic' living room idea... Maybe some things are just meant to be in the recycle bin.

Hey, don't give up on it yet! For a more upscale look, you could try using a hot glue gun to add more stability and cover the entire thing in a thick layer of lacquer. If you manage to make it look more coherent, not just a bunch of rolls stuck together, you could end up with a wall piece that actually gets compliments! Work with those textures and don't skimp on the glue!

So you've basically created a biodegradable cat toy that passes as 'art'? Pretty avant-garde if you ask me 😉 But seriously, what did you expect? Golden toilet art. That's a new one for the books lol.

While I'm all up for repurposing and upcycling, it's possible this one missed the mark a bit? Maybe paired with some real houseplants it might blend in and look more intentional? Nonetheless, kudos for creativity and sharing the laugh!

Your idea sounded dope in theory, but paper rolls might be just too tempting for the pets 😅. Ever thought about mixing the rolls with some other materials? Like some old CD pieces to catch the light or something sturdier so it's not a total cat magnet.

I totally get where ur coming from, tried to do something similar for a DIY project. You NEED to seal 'em with some Mod Podge or something if you don't want your cat to turn 'em into confetti. And tbh, gold spray paint can only do so much to upgrade toilet rolls lol. Next time, maybe try something less... recyclable? 😂
