How Neat and Funky Is The Toilet Paper Holder?

In my web surfing for the next blog post, I came across this interesting Apartment Therapy article that quickly caught my eye. How neat and funky is this toilet paper holder? I've never seen anything like it so I knew this was something I had to share! If you are looking to add some cool bathroom accessories to your bathroom decor than this is definitely something you should consider! Check out the following steps to make your very own phone toilet paper holder! Does this charming little DIY phone turned toilet paper dispenser look familiar? Well it should; we have seen it in Suki's Seattle house call, and it was also featured in her Small/Cool 2011 entry. We had quite a few readers requesting a tutorial on how Suki made this fun and quirky TP holder, so without further ado here it is laid out for you step by step^ Here are the steps: * Scour your favorite vintage spots for a good old-timey phone. * Remove all of the phone's guts completely to make it as light as possible. * Get rid of any knobs or feet on the bottom of the phone to make it flat and smooth. This may involve a little sanding. * Next, clean the surface of the phone and the wall you are going to adhere it to. * To attach the phone use double-sided adhesive foam tape or an epoxy for a more permanent hold. Just make sure it's secure and can hold up to 4lbs of weight. * Then attach some kind of ribbon or fastening mechanism around the neck of the phone to hold up your toilet paper roll. Suki used a garter belt that she bought in Tokyo. Make sure whatever you use can easily be opened and closed in order to change toilet paper rolls. * Lastly, go get your favorite toilet paper to put on your new cute dispenser!
