Don't throw away your toilet paper rolls: discover their amazing uses

ADVERTISEMENT

Toilet paper is one of the most everyday products, and yet its cardboard roll almost always ends up in the trash. Yet there are many ways to recycle it, both for home and for gardening. Here are some simple and practical tips to give it a second life.

Keeping the curtains in place
If you have ring curtains, toilet paper rolls can be used as separators on the rod to avoid overly tight folds. All you need to do is to alternate a ring and a roll of cardboard to obtain a more uniform pin. For a more discrete effect, it is possible to cut the rollers in half.

Rangling cables and wires
The cables that drag and tangle in the drawers are a source of frustration. Wrap them up and slide them into a roll of toilet paper to keep them well organized. For convenience, write on the carton the type of cable it contains.

Keep the well-ordered threads and cords
To prevent the yarns of wool, ribbons or cords from engulfed, wrap them around a roll of cardboard. A small notch at one end will wedge the end of the wire and hold it in place.
