Run out of toilet paper 1/12th as often
Have a big wall next to your toilet and don't like running out of toilet paper? Mounting more toilet paper holders on the wall is a simple way to keep it from happening.

Step 1Install twelve toilet paper holders

Install twelve toilet paper holders
My friend Michal and I picked up 12 wooden toilet paper holders from Ikea for $1.99 a piece and hung them on the wall of our bathroom. Now we run out of toilet paper a lot less - plus different size people can take toilet paper from whatever roll is most comfortable for them. I know this isn't exactly the most ground breaking idea - but I cant' say enough about the positive impact this has made on my life.

If your living with lefty's and righty's, and your walls permit, you can hang the holders from both walls and really take bathroom convenience to the next level.

Very creative, and above all thrifty, though looking at the pic this 'ible has certainly reignited the seat up/seat down debate!

Now you only need to add a few more things:
A gas mask
A Geiger counter
and a poster like this:

THIS IS SO FUNNY! I LOVE THIS!!! The one modification I would make is to put different brands, patterns, and grades of rolls.

hmmm . . .your mention of taking from whatever roll is most comfortable made me think of an interesting psychology experiment: to somehow do this to a public restroom and monitor roll levels . . .i wonder which rolls would have the most . . . .erm . . .traffic

Now THATS a serious case of OCD. Lmao Oh btw I just thought of something. . . Do they sell coloured toilet paper? Make it more stylistic lol
Oct 2, 2009. 2:37 PMH3xx says:
Actually they do. You can get Black toilet paper online (Google it). Also the grocery store I work at carries Easter colored toilet paper. (baby blue, light green, and pink.)

Sweet! xD

I think toilet paper holders are a hassle, with a loose roll, just wrap it around your hand a few times.

You know what would be cool, Toilet paper that's coloured. It would make this look much more colourful.

How about glow-in-the-dark edible paint? "Mommy, my poop is neon green!" "No more Pop Tarts for you!"

AWESOME!!!!!!

This is my suggestion:

Make a 3x3 grid, so there are nine rolls. *Somehow* have the individual sheets on each roll have an X or an O alternated between sheets on every roll. Then, you could have a game of ticktacktoe with the other restroom users!
