It is possible to reuse them and transform them into numerous objects and decorations thanks to skill and creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Used cardboard rolls, how to recycle them<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite its simplicity as well as its apparent uselessness, an object such as a used roll of cardboard&nbsp;<strong>can be reused<\/strong>&nbsp;and become something new and original.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_29504\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imilanesi.nanopress.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/rotoli-di-cartone-usati-1.jpg\" alt=\"used cardboard rolls\" class=\"wp-image-29504\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every week, in all of our homes,&nbsp;<strong>many used cardboard rolls<\/strong>&nbsp;end up in the trash, not just toilet paper rolls, but kitchen rolls as well. However, thanks to the magic of&nbsp;<strong>creative recycling,<\/strong>&nbsp;these rolls can be transformed into original, useful and beautiful objects. Let&#8217;s see how they can have a big impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is possible to use the rolls of paper already used to&nbsp;<strong>create practical cases<\/strong>&nbsp;that allow you to store electrical cables neatly inside the drawers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We can also&nbsp;<strong>create beautiful pencil holders<\/strong>&nbsp;with toilet paper rolls. After you have painted them, simply use vinyl glue to assemble the rolls and create an original pencil holder, a fun gift idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, we took the cardboard rolls of various sizes for recycling and cut them with a hacksaw at various heights. We will make&nbsp;<strong>one of 15cm, one of 7cm and 2 of 10cm.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Then we take it with a plate, place it on a cardboard to make a circular shape of about 22\/23 cm, then cut the cardboard<\/strong>&nbsp;with scissors and start&nbsp;<strong>painting it with acrylic colors.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_29536\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imilanesi.nanopress.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/strumenti-per-bricolage.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29536\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We can make it the color we prefer, either white or silver, then let it dry. Then we do the same with the rolls and&nbsp;<strong>paint them all with acrylic paint.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then with a hot gun we hold a ribbon with pearls and make it adhere to the cardboard&nbsp;<strong>by putting the excess part of pearls.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We stop the tape with the beads on the edge in several places, and we do this on both sides of the cylinder. We repeat this&nbsp;<strong>on the other 10 cm cylinder as well.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now&nbsp;<strong>always with hot glue<\/strong>&nbsp;we make a finish with the metallic silver rope. Then cover the other 2 rolls of 15 and 7 cm, passing the rope around inside and out and&nbsp;<strong>blocking it with hot glue.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_29534\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imilanesi.nanopress.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/pistola-colla-a-caldo.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29534\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now we take the now dry cardboard circle and cover the outer edge with&nbsp;<strong>a row of ribbon beads<\/strong>&nbsp;to cover the cut and add a row of ribbon beads on the cardboard plane along the circumference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally&nbsp;<strong>we glue the 4 coated rolls<\/strong>, placing the two side by side with the pearls of the same size and place the others in a specular way one in front of the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this way we have created, by blocking all the used cardboard rolls, to form&nbsp;<strong>a very nice brush and make-up holder.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are many possibilities for recycling used cardboard rolls that are ideal for organizing your home.
