Enhance your bathroom’s quirky aesthetic with a cute DIY toilet paper holder. If you prefer a more traditional look that you can create yourself, a simple upcycling project might be just what you need.
Gather your materials, focusing on upcycled items you may already have at home. Find a clean, large plastic bottle slightly larger than the width of a standard toilet paper roll (around 5 inches in diameter). This ensures the roll won’t get stuck when you need it.
Select cute fabrics that match your bathroom decor. Consider repurposing old clothing like shirts for solid colors or patterns. Adding a second fabric with texture, such as burlap or a placemat, can make the design stand out. Lighter fabrics typically work best for this DIY project.

Start by cutting the top off the plastic bottle and sanding the edge smooth. Wrap the bottle in textured fabric, glue the fabric to cover the bottom, and tuck the top inside the bottle. Glue the second fabric around the top edge, ensuring the back faces out. Pull the fabric up, leaving two inches outside, and tuck the rest inside. Cover two cardboard rounds with fabric and glue them to the bottom of the bottle.
Consider adding embellishments to personalize the design. Floral patterns with faux flowers or a black fabric with a metal pushpin border can give different vibes to the holder. Get creative and make another funky toilet paper holder to add a playful touch to your bathroom.
