I choose coordinating paper, cardstock and embellishments.


Custom made flowers made for the cover.


I chose silk leaves and fibers with colors and textures for a "sea weed" look.

    Thank YOU so much!! You can Google Toilet Paper Roll albums and find tutorials and YouTube videos to help you make a few for yourself or give as gifts. Everyone has their own technique and style. They are QUICK, EASY and FUN to make! I may even have a tutorial somewhere on my blog that inspired me.

    Would also make a GREAT kids project for your own children or for groups like Girl Scouts.

    You will need 4 toilet paper rolls to make one TP roll mini album.

    HINT: If you need 1 or 2 more you can take a paper towel roll and cut it to the same size as the toilet paper rolls.

  45. CorrineJuly 9, 2011 at 7:36 PM

    You all really have to try ONE TOILET ROLL mini album. Seriously, they take hardly any time and hardly any supplies cause they are so small.

    If you want to make them even "cuter" sew the mats with zig zag, it makes the POP and it gives the mini an nice look. A few flowers and some ribbon and it is dressed up enough to give away. LOL

    I think a baby album would be AWESOME!!

    I also think that kids would have a HAY DAY with this and whatever they made would be CUTE!!

    Have FUN and thank you for all you WONDERFUL comments. You have made my day and possibly my entire week!!

    THANK YOU!!!
