Toilet Paper Folding: 6 Adorable Designs to Elevate Your Bathroom

Did you know that toilet paper origami is a thing? You may have seen this effect used in hotel bathrooms before, but have you ever thought of using it in your own home?


Here, I'm sharing six video tutorials for fun shapes you can make by folding the end of your toilet paper. Though maybe not practical for everyday, these designs are such a cute idea for a guest bathroom or if you're hosting a themed event (Galentine's Day heart and rose toilet paper designs, anyone?).


Here are some cute and easy toilet paper folding ideas to try:

1. The Classic Fan Fold

The fan fold is a timeless design that adds a touch of sophistication to any bathroom. Start by placing the roll on a flat surface. Fold the top edge of the paper into a series of small, even pleats, creating a fan-like appearance. Once you reach the desired fan width, tuck the pleats into the roll and smooth out the edges. This simple yet elegant design works well for both casual and formal settings. (video by Origami Creations)

2. The Diamond Fold

The diamond fold is perfect for a more modern and sleek look. Start by placing the roll on a flat surface. Fold the top edge of the paper into a series of small triangles, creating a diamond pattern. Continue folding the triangles until you cover the entire top of the roll. Tuck the edges of the paper under the roll to keep the design in place. This geometric design is a stylish choice for contemporary bathrooms. (video by The Clean Loft)

3. The Bow Fold

The bow tie fold adds a touch of whimsy and charm to your bathroom. Begin by placing the roll on a flat surface. Fold the top edge of the paper into a bow tie shape by creating two small loops on either side and tucking the ends of the paper underneath the roll. Adjust the loops to create a symmetrical bow tie shape. This design is perfect for adding a playful touch to any bathroom. (video by Clean with Confidence)

4. The Heart Shape

Show a little love with the heart shape design. Start by placing the roll on a flat surface. Fold the top edge of the paper into a heart shape by creating a rounded top and pointed bottom. Once the heart is formed, tuck the edges of the paper under the roll to secure the shape. This sweet design is perfect for special occasions or adding a touch of romance to your bathroom.
