Product Information

Without the visuals, we too might have been perplexed by how empty toilet rolls could ever make our curtains look neat! If you do insist on doing that, because you can't get your curtain rod down, okay… just do yourself a favor, give the toilet paper rolls a light coating of mod podge first to seal that paper, make them stiffer and keep it from unravelling. Have you been saving toilet paper tubes in a target bag, on a hook in the depths of the craft closet, just waiting to hop on the next craft for toilet paper rolls to trend? If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag.

TIP: If you are still concerned, the cardboard rolls will show on your curtain panels, paint the cardboard toilet rolls in the color of your curtain rod. In this case, you may want to measure the size of the eyelet and compare it to the size of the cardboard roll. Clearly compelled to share her trick, Kelly was sat late one night taking pictures of her curtains to explain what she meant when she advised them to 'put empty toilet rolls in the top to make the pleats look neat'. Clearly a fan, one exclaims, 'So happy you posted this I have never seen this done thank you I will do this.

This is where you need to decide how much you want your curtains to protrude into the window opening when they are pushed back into “daytime” position. To prevent the rolls from squishing, draw a ring around the roll where you will cut, make a small slit horizontally into the roll, and cut around the circle with scissors. Lay the first eyelet hole, pretty side down then you are going to want to lay the next, on top of it pretty side down until you are finished stacking the eyelets.Even though it looks like they do in the image, once I slide them and stand back, from my view, they are not visible at all, and my eyelets are quite large.
