I have toilet paper rolls on my wall.

When I moved to CO and was looking for a job, I also had a bit of down time while waiting for someone to call and offer me a job. So naturally, I glazed my eyes over the internet looking at bunches of ideas for DIY projects and things to keep me amused. And amused I was. When I started saving toilet paper rolls though, my bf gave me funny looks and sweetly humored me as he helped contribute to the bag that was filling up in the bathroom. I was determined to do something with these little cardboard tubes.
I stumbled across this: DIY toilet paper roll wall art and had to do it. We had just moved and I wanted to use this as a cheap excuse to decorate the naked walls.

I somewhat followed the instructions on that website, but here is what I did:
Materials:
-At least 10 or so toilet paper tubes (I also used paper towel tubes)
-Glue (even simple craft glue)
-Spray paint (I used two different colors)
After trimming down the box top to a shallower fit, I started by flattening the tubes in half in order to be easier to cut--cut the tubes into 1/2in. pieces. Using the cardboard box top as a frame, I laid out the design that I wanted and glued the "leaf" looking toilet tube pieces to the box top. After allowing the glue time to dry, I took my spray paint and box top design outside and sprayed the one color [metallic green] aiming down from the top of my frame and the other color [bronze] from the opposing angle. So the finished frame looks different colors from where you stand.

The finished project:

...and it only cost me $6.54 for the spray paint (recycled the toilet paper tubes and already had the elmer's glue).
