Archives: Tip: Toilet Paper Tubes for Electrical Cords Archived on 07/08/2009 I take empty toilet paper rolls and cover them with wall paper samples to make "covers" for the cords on our small appliances. If you go to the wall paper stores and ask if they have outdated wall paper sample books, they most likely will give you a few, for free. By Great Granny Vi from Moorpark,CA Feedback: RE: Toilet Paper Tubes for Electrical Cords That is a terrific idea! And also a great crafting projects for kids and their bedrooms (all their electronics). I hate cords being seen, but if they were decorated with paint, buttons, whatever decor, it wouldn't be such an eye sore. Thanks for giving me an extended idea for a long time problem.

Coiled cords heat up and the paper could act as an insulator holding the heat in and causing a fire. It is a wonderful idea though for storing cords. Be Safe.

You can also use the toilet paper rolls for the cords on your irons, lamps, etc. By Carol from Spring Hill, FL Feedback: RE: Store Cords In Toilet Paper Rolls Nifty idea. I too have done this for years. (01/08/2009) By LITTLE SUZY RE: Store Cords in Toilet Paper Rolls Great idea. Thanks for sharing!

(01/08/2009) By Biblequest RE: Store Cords in Toilet Paper Rolls I use the new silicon baking sheets. When they are washed and dried, I roll them up and stick them in either toilet roll or paper towel rolls. The sheets flatten right out, they don't hold the roll so this is a great way to store them. I have also used the toilet rolls for wrapping gifts. You can put tissue paper on them and twist the ends, put on ribbon and they look like candy pieces, large ones!

Everyone has a junk drawer so why not make it a tidy drawer! By Glenda from Coldwater Michigan Answers: RE: Toilet Paper Tubes for Electrical Cords 02/03/2006 I also write the length of the extension cord on the roll. By wallflower Report Spam or Abuse
