I love wall art, but I get bored with things too easily. I need change in the house every few months so i rearrange the house frequently but I need a change in decor too. Instead of buying things or switching out decor between rooms, I started upcycling paper towel or toilet paper rolls into new wall art. No money out of pocket and it looks great!
All you need is:
Paper Towel or Toilet Paper Rolls
Scissors
Glue Gun
Start by smashing your roll in half, so it flattens out. Then grab your scissors and cut into thin pieces. You're going to use a lot of rolls, so save up! Cutting them up, they'll look like little petals that we'll glue together to make flowers.
Once you have plenty of rolls cut up, we can start gluing. Put a little dab of hot glue towards the bottom crease on one side of the "petal" and attach another piece to it at the same point. Keep going around until you have a small flower.
I kept some flowers like this, and made some larger and larger. All you need to do it grab 6 more "petals" and glue them in between the "petals" of your center flower.
You can make the flowers as big or small as you'd like. Once you have plenty of flowers made, arrange them and glue them all together. Once you've glued your arrangement together, you can spray paint them or just hang it up on the wall!
Now you have some new wall art that didn't cost a thing!
Hope you enjoyed it and it inspires you to make some new things!
