DIY: Easy tension rod paper towel holder

Winter’s setting in here, well we might not get snow but the cold is enough to want to stay home by the fireplace. Stocking up supplies keeps me from having to bundle up and head out in this in the cold weather, except for the occasional Mardi Gras parade, we’re always hungry for moon pies. 

Dollar General,  is right around the corner and with their new Digital Coupons I can stock up on month’s worth of SCOTT® paper product.

I was surprised at how long SCOTT® bath tissue lasts in our household, haven’t had to restock since before the holidays. 

But with all the art projects and bunnies we I made sure to grabbed another Scotts Bonus Pack of paper towel, which proved handy over the weekend  when the kids flooded their bathroom. Don’t ask, but all I can say is we need a professional plumber.

I found a simple solution to a on the spot no tools needed paper towel holder… a tension rod! Just find a place you’d want paper towels, a drawer, under the cabinet, book shelf, where ever, then measure the span of where you decided, buy the appropriate length tension rod and install. I choose to place ours in the kids bathroom, easy to access for bathroom clean up and the rod is enough to hold two rolls or a roll and a bath towel. This can be done with bath tissue too!

We love Handprint T-shirt art

Paper towels for me as a crafter and mom, like many of you, have become an my must have. I need them within reach at all times, I don’t think there’s anything I do that doesn’t benefit from having paper towels on hand, from art projects, to making dinner, photography shoots to bunnies, it has me covered and being eco minded I don’t like to waste, so Scott Choose-A-Sheet are the ones we use from messes big and small.

Does it looks like petals of a rose opening up for the first time, see my paper towel obsession is real!

The holidays can start to get expensive so I try and save where ever and when ever I can. 

Dollar General’s new Digital Coupons are surprising easy the to redeem from a lot of great brands. You’ll need to try it out!

Our house is about as busy as Santa’s workshop right noes, we have a ton of art projects to get done. There was enough paint covered fingers to induce anxiety in any mom, it was enough to make my hair turn gray, or red, yellow and green, yikes! 

Handprint t-shirt art was lots of fun, super messy but they turn out great.

Supplies:

cotton t-shirts

foam brushes

multi-surface paints in many colors

painter’s tape

Scott Paper towels 

cardboard

Steps:

Tape off an area on the t-shirt you’d for the handprints design. Next spell out the word LOVE in tape inside the taped off box. Place a piece of cardboard and paper towel inside the t-shirt under your design. Next using sponge brushes, cover the hands with a generous amount of paint, then pressing the hand firmly within the taped off box, repeat. Make sure to cover the taped word LOVE completely with painted hand prints. When the paint is dry, peel off the tape, you design will now be visible.

Scott’s had us covered from our hands, to the table, the walls and sink and the kids wondered why I was wearing the most colorful, ugly sweater on I could find….paint attack!
