1. Preparation of the role

Squeeze the toilet paper roll flat so that it forms a rectangular shape. It’s best to press the roll gently with your hand so that it doesn’t crack.

2. Mark curves

Now use a glass or another circular object and mark even curves at both ends of the roll. These will later serve as folding points.

3. Fold ends

Now fold the ends of the roll inwards. Use the rounded fold lines to create the typical shape of a folding box. Repeat this step on both sides of the roll.

4. Filling the box

Then carefully open the box again and fill it with small gifts, for example jewelry, sweets or other small items.

5. Embellishments

Finally comes the creative part: close the box again and devote yourself to the decoration. Whether with stamps, gift ribbon, paper strips or glittering details – there are no limits to your creativity.

Sustainable, creative and individual

With this clever idea you can design your own individual gift packaging and avoid plastic and unnecessary waste. The folding boxes made from toilet paper rolls are not only sustainable, but also an original eye-catcher that gives your gifts a personal touch.
