Trash to Treasure- Turquoise TP Art

What you need:

• Toilet Paper Rolls- the number depends on how large your creation will be
• Tacky Glue
• Scissors
• Spray Paint
  
• 3M Wall Mount Squares
• Patience :)
  

Gather toilet paper rolls. I used about 28 rolls for this project. Paper towel rolls count for approx. three regular sized rolls.

Squish your rolls

Cut slices of the roll to desired thickness. I cut mine into varying 1/2 inch slices and was able to get 12 slices from each roll.

Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have enough pieces.

Begin gluing pieces together. I tried to put most of my glue on the tip of the piece.

Attach slices together in the form of a four petal flower.

Your finished flower should look like this. Repeat step 6 until you have five completed flowers. Let dry.

Beginning attaching flowers together. The toilet paper rolls are pretty pliable at this point, so attempt to line the petals up exactly to form perfect circles.

Attach five flowers together to form a row and then repeat steps 6-9 until you have as many rows as you want. Then glue those rows together. I glued four rows together at a time to create a 5x4 flower grid and ending up making five grids. Finally, I took them out to the garage and spray painted them!

Here is the finished project hung on the wall with 3M mounting squares. Beautiful, right??

Believe it or not, I created another toilet paper creation that hangs on my mantle HERE.
