Recycling paper tubes Normally the toilet paper tubes are usually thrown away after the paper is finished, but, it turns out that if we can give it a new use. Next, we will see how to transform these tubes into small boxes that can be ideal for containing personal items or gift wrapping. So without further ado let's get started. 1- what we are going to do once we have obtained the free paper tubes is to crush them with our hands. Then, on the side we mark a distance of 1 cm to be folded, and once that is done we lift from the inside so that it gets a square shape.

2- in this step we are going to mark the distance of 3 and 2 cm in one of its extremities, this in order to be trimmed with scissors, and to take out a part that will have the function of being a base at the bottom of the box. And the part that was cut out will become a lid that covers the surface and the front of it.

3- adhered the base with liquid glue.

4- with shoelaces we fix the different parts of the box well until the glue dries completely - in addition to maintaining its square shape.

5- once the glue has dried, remove the laces and we get the following result.

And that's it! We are done with our work 😃 What do you think? I hope this will motivate you to do it. And remember you can comment at the end of this post, I'll be reading and giving you feedback. I also appreciate all the support received from all of you. Without more to say I'll see you in a next installment. Until then 😎👍. **Materials** used
