I have been saving up my empty toilet rolls and in today's post, I am sharing some recycled toilet roll craft ideas and making the best of waster. I have made some gift boxes that would be perfect for weddings favours and I also have used some of the toilet rolls as seedling starters. A wedding friendly DIY so please share with someone who would love to make these.
Toilet rolls are so easy to fold into little pillow boxes and they would make perfect table favours for a party or wedding. They would also be fab to gift small items of jewellery or trinkets. I decided to paint some of mine and use some items from my craft stash to decorate my gift boxes. I also decoupaged on some pretty floral napkins to give them a shabby chic look.

I am planting seeds and those toilet paper roll seed starters are perfect. I also wanted to tell you I rescue feral cats and rehabilitate them for homes. A few weeks ago I got very young pregnant cat who is very calm. She gave birth 2 weeks ago to 4 kittens now named Bear, Fanta, Blondie and Pepsi

Yes we say loo roll or toilet rolls too here in Northern Ireland Catherine. I'm watching this in July 2021. I grow my sweet pea seeds in those little pots but I've never bothered to fold the bottoms in just filled them with the cheapest compost and put the seeds in. My window sills are full like yours in late Winter early Spring so everything will be ready to go out when the frosts are passed. I use old telephone directories scrap paper and newspapers that people give me to make enough pots for my veg seeds too. Another way to use the sweetie boxes is to put a couple of holes in the bottom with a hot poker or a drill if you have one or even a nail and hammer for drainage then plant some spring bulbs like daffodils crocuses snowdrops or whatever and give that as a present or keep for yourself! Love your channel Catherine...tis keeping me from climbing the bloody walls at the moment so thank you and God bless you love! Vera

We say toilet in the U.S. but either works! That's great ideas for the loo rolls lol. I like that word better. :) I love starting seedlings. It's so satisfying watching them sprout and grow. My Granny always did this. Taught me how when I was a child. She also dried her apples from their orchard. Made the BEST fried apple pies ever! And made apple dumplings, but not the whole apple wrapped the way they make them now. She took rehydrated, sweetened apples (cooked with water, sugar and cinnamon or apple pie spice) made her home made dumplings, and added a spoonful to the center of a piece, piched it closed, and put them in boiling water sweetened and spiced the same way...they were soooo delicious! She's been gone for many years, but I will always remember those pies and dumplings and how to make them. I hope your sunflowers sprout big and tall! Then you will have your own seeds! She also saved seeds for veggies. Tomatoes (technically fruit), cucumbers, squash, (courgettes). We say squash because their are sooo many varieties (I'm guessing? I don't really know why LOL.) Great job Catherine! Stay safe and well. Hugs, Deb

Great job. Sunflowers are super easy to grow. The birds planted one for me next to my fence from their feeders. Sunflowers don't need alot of tending. I have some that grew 18feet tall. Birds and bees love them.

I am in the USA, and I do say loo roll, but that is because I watch so many British and Irish videos and television programs, lol. Grew up calling it toilet paper rolls. I liked how you cut and folded the bottoms. I see a lot of people, like one of my faves, Monty Don, and also Cliff at Castle Hill Garden, using loo rolls instead of root trainers, particularly for sweet peas, but I haven't seen them folding the bottoms before. I will try this. Thank you!

I agree, seeds are so fun! When we started our garden and people found out, it was like we had joined the secret "garden club" or something! People get really excited talking about gardening with other gardeners, and they share seeds, and give advice, etc. Nice to feel part of a happy hobby community! :)

This was just in time for mother's day 💐 (second Sunday of May here) The pillow wrappers are perfect for any holiday trinkets. I found that if I put decoupage/mudpudge glue only on the top, the paper didn't wrinkle as much, depending of the thickness. Waiting for warmer temperature for seedling here (still 5° at night) Keep the DIY coming 👍

i've made a lot of pillow boxes (from cardstock) but never from a toilet roll and i've got to give it a try - yours were beautiful! love decoupage too so loved this video. And the seed starters - wonderful idea. i've gotta get busy. Sunflowers are so beautiful. Our local elementary school kids would plant them all along the fencing in front of the school near the end of the year. Parents would keep them watered all summer long and the sunflowers would be a gorgeous site at the beginning of the school year. They don't do it anymore - such a pity. I think I may plant a few in my yard using your seed starter idea. Thanks so much Catherine
