yes folding it and keeping it in place would be tricky...

You'll just have to buy the book Emma

Okay, I had a go at the cupcake last night. It was a bit of a disaster. I folded in all the right places but it just wouldn't stay put and kept coming unfolded. Is my loo paper too posh? Do I need some of that tracing paper stuff they have in schools?

 

Hubby asked me if I was okay when I came out. I had been in there a while

I didn't dare say I had been practising toilet paper origami

[craftyhunnypie]

I am not lowering myself to purchase a book on loo roll folding! That is just a no no!

There must be instructions on the web somewhere. I only want to learn one design as a joke , I do not want a whole book on bottom paper folding techniques!

I think it's a great stocking filler for anyone who's OH spends an inordinate amount of time in the bathroom.

 

How long do you reckon it will be before one of us uses a public loo to find that the previous occupant has left a loo paper origami?

[craftyhunnypie]

Hmm probably on an Omlet meet!

I think Lesley best watch out - I reckon Christian must be practising the folds - just to upset her on his next visit!

Oooh! I am a convert. First saw the folded triangle in Thailand on honeymoon in 1990, and occasionally come across it in hotels in this country, but no idea it was an artform! I am sitting here right now with a loo role trying the fan thingy and failing miserably. Think I need more wine, then try again.

 

I have to have that loo role origami book. It's a must! And there is a towel version of this artform?

 

My life has been so meaningless and empty up til now. How could I not know how fulfilling life could be sitting on the loo?

 

Is the book divided into quick origami (if you are doing a no 1) and

 

More complicated origami (for those no 2 moments?)

 

I have found my calling in life.

Can't believe you are on the forum sat on the loo I can hear you pull the chain

[The Dogmother]

I once rang my sister when she was on the loo... she answered and I could hear the loo flushing

I see there's a link to Teabag folding as well

 

I've just been sidetracked into Recycled Magazine Coasters..........

Sheila (Teabag) called in today - I made the cupcake 'specially for her!

 

I had to put it as a display because otherwise the paper would have been the wrong way round

 

I did take a photo.........I'll post it later.....

[Lavenders_Blue]

Very good Lesley, I'm very jealous. I still haven't managed to stop my cupcakes unfolding themselves!

[Lesley]

This one is struggling - I think the paper is too soft, it's a case of 'look, don't touch'

[Lewis]

!

Well done

It was brilliant & much appreciated, thank you Lesley, I was really impressed.

 

Teabag folding? Hands off, sounds dangerous!

 

Actually, it's a fun. DD2 learnt this and downloaded some patterns. It's quite a satisfying craft activity, for a short while.

[Lesley]

Glad you liked it

[fluffyfeet]

What a brilliant thread - OH knows I'm on the forum cos he can hear me roaring with laughter.

 

Lesley - I'm with you on the 'flap down the back' and so is my mom!

 

Was talking to a friend earlier who asked me to hang on whilst she wiped her bum!!

Her daughter thrust the phone at her in the 'smallest room' and walked off - little tinker

 

I'm feeling a little flushed now.......

- glad to know Sheila and I are not the only ones who hang the roll properly.

 

I have sad news - we had visitors on Sunday...........and someone renewed the toilet roll

 

Despite there being a 4 pack on the cupboard, whoever it was decided to use my cupcake ........... and to add insult to injury...........they hung it with the paper over the top

[The Dogmother]

wasn't me this time

 

I'd be thankful that they'd hung it at all; I have some visitors who just leave the empty roll on the holder and the newly opened one on the window sill!
