It’s easy to toss away toilet paper rolls without giving them a second thought, but did you know these simple cardboard tubes can actually be quite useful around the house? Instead of throwing them away, you can repurpose them in creative and practical ways that are good for both your wallet and the environment.
One of the most popular uses is for organizing cables and chargers. Simply tuck your cords inside the roll to keep them from getting tangled. You can even decorate the rolls with colorful paper or labels to make your workspace neater and more stylish.

If you enjoy crafts, toilet paper rolls can be transformed into fun DIY projects with kids, like making little animals, ornaments, or gift boxes. So next time, think twice before tossing them out these humble rolls have more potential than meets the eye.
