Here on my desk for whats on your work desk wednesday you can see i've made a start by painting my loo roll inside and around the out side edge with a bright green Acrylic paint.
I know these have been around for a while so it's high time i made one.
Hope everyone has a good woyww & happy blog hopping .
seen the mini albums before, but hadnt thought about painting them first - but now i am wondering why it didnt occur to me!
ReplyDeleteremember to let us see how your project turns out.
thanks for popping by earlier, just trying to get the last of my crafty fix (and calm my nerves lol) while i can

a fab green - hope the album goes well - it's always great fun to make a book from scratch!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your desk today. Sarah at 2.
I haven't seen these albums before so I will be interested in seeing what it looks like when you are done. Have fun creating your book. Vickie
ReplyDeleteAren't you working neatly! They may have been around a while, but I haven't made one...too busy erm...putting it off! I Like the bright green very much, and your Hyacinth water pot!
ReplyDeleteI'm interested in seeing how this comes out. :) Love the bright green. :)
ReplyDeleteI can't even begin to work out what a toilet roll album is going to look like, so please show the result soon!! Have fun creating xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat space you have - I've never heard of making a toilet roll album - would love to see how it turns out - Hazel WOYWW #65 x
ReplyDeleteNot only have I not made one before but I've also not heard of them either!! I just have to ask, you know there's got to be one!! Do you read a loo roll mini whilst sitting on the loo???

How cool! I haven't made one of these either yet. Great thinking to paint first! Thanks for sharing your WOYWW! -Amanda
ReplyDeleteNow there's another thing I have to try! Would love to see it finished!
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW
I'm having a quick trip round the WOYWWers before I start on my next batch of little African dresses. It's great to see what you're busy with this week.

You've made a great start, I love that bright green:)
ReplyDeleteI've not made one yet. Looks like you are off to a great start! :D #89
ReplyDeleteYour desk is very neat and organised. Made one of these for my wee granddaughter last year and she treasures it still. Fiddly to make but well worth the effort - and I've got tons of the inners stashed away to make another one day when I have oodles of time. Look forward to seeing the finished project.

ReplyDeleteHi Jill,
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a loo roll album before, can't wait to see it when you've finished.
Have fun creating :)

Your post pricked my conscience! Last year I started a toilet roll mini album for a friend for Christmas and circumstances got in the way and I never finished it. Was hoping to get it done for her birthday in May and it's still languishing in the box of Things to Do. Must complete it! They are fun to do. Look forward to seeing yours finished!
ReplyDeleteBit late with my comments on last week's WOYWW - I haven't even managed to look at half the posts yet!!
