Using the toilet paper roll as a divider can maintain the top of the curtains equidistant and fully stretched, preventing tight folds, if your curtains have a ring to place into the rod. To get a consistent look and make lovely folds, all you need is a ring and a roll of paper. You may easily cut the roll in half to get smaller, still-tidy folds if the effect is too much for your curtains.
A fix for wires that are all over the place? The cylinder of cardboard.
In addition, the plethora of cords that, when left strewn about in various containers, inevitably tangle and make it next to impossible to locate and, more importantly, to swiftly untangle them may be redirected by using the toilet paper roll. To place the wire into the paper roll, just roll it over once to make it slightly longer. This is also the place where you may decide to utilize the whole roll or cut it into smaller pieces based on the cables’ dimensions and length.
It could be beneficial to indicate the kind of cable on the roll itself for better identification.
Using the cardboard roll as a “shuttle” for stray threads is another brilliant use for it. A simple way to maintain clean and untangled thread is to wrap it around the roll. Make a little vertical slit at one end of the roll; slide the thread end inside, and then begin rolling for a better fixation. After that, you can fasten the thread’s top end using the same cut or a different one. This manner, you can be absolutely certain that the thread will stay put.
