Magazine Roll-up Crafts

[@olderendirt]

I have one sitting here by my computer that my grandmother and I made over 40 years ago using a similar method. We used a soup can and filed the rough edge where the top lid had been removed. We used a knitting needle the same diameter as the vinyl clothesline to make tubes, attached them, and sprayed them with polyurethane. The clothesline insets are made like yours except there is only one in each. They're inserted to overlap every other one like yours does. Fun project! Thanks for sharing!

[@prncfrk]

Awwwww thanks for the wonderful memory. My dad and I use to make these when I was a little girl back in the 70's for Senior Centers. Not that they are hard to make but they're much easier to make now. In the 70's we didn't have glue sticks or the hot glue gun we used bottles of Elmer's. What a great way to recycle my old Martha magazines. Thanks :o)

[@krispereira1242]

I made these for gifts when I was in nursing school back in the 70's. I made trashcans, The only mistake I made was not making one for myself. Glad I saw your video! Making one for me now, a few years late. lol Thanks for the great video!

[@OJoyBaby]

I remember my grandmother, who was a consummate crafter, making the trash cans and teaching her grandkids -- much like your memory. They were identical to yours with the plastic clothes line, though not as fancy as yours. I never forgot how to make and recently making them again. I like to spray paint mine either with color or clear. I had one that lasted about 20 years and survived a couple moves.

[@QuirkyGirl10]

Love the way you finished off the top and bottom edges with the pipe cleaners.

[@melchorapablo6800]

i"m starting to make things,w/ magazine.and i"m enjoying it.thanks for showing your tutorials.hope to learn more.

[@normajohnston1593]

Love the roses! They're very pretty. I think I'll try those. Looks like fun!

[@pachambers]

Thanks for sharing your wonderful crafts ideas. I always have magazines I throw away. Now, I can use some of them for cute projects. I like the idea too because I can make things after the holiday as well. Plus, using the magazines help me recycle and affordable.

[@lindsaydennison5880]

Absolutely fabulous. Beautifully illustrated

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Aww, you're so sweet! Thank you so much, and thanks for watching!

[@scredbird]

You are one smart lady! So pretty, but so simple to do! Thank you so much!!

[@BernadettesGarden]

Love this idea! Always throwing out magazines and catalogs. Thanks for the inspiration, I am always looking for ways to re-purpose and recycle as I love to do lots of crafting myself.

[@Jennifr1966]

I don't get magazine subscriptions, but they still show up, so this is a great way to prevent more in the landfill. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@trishfitzpatrick2066]

At last! A well produced video! Good project, well explained, appropriately filmed, in an attractive environment, and NO distractions. A joy to watch. YAY!!

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Thanks for sharing this video Pattie. I am starting to craft again. I got the bug during the holidays while I was recovering from bronchitis and I was going stair crazy in the house. Thanks again.

[@PattieWack]

Rita, that is really fantastic for you to get the crafting bug. And they say it's a wonderful way to heal, mend and revigorate your creativity. Crafting is good for us!

[@bethanyrose8057]

I wish you were an aunt. I'd craft with you all day any day when I wasnt working

[@susangrosan325]

Thanks for the inspiration! I found a long and low cardboard box and used it to make a planter. I get so many compliments on it at work. So colorful and cheery. I lined it with a plastic bag and put a coat of mod podge on the outside to seal it. I watched a few movies while rolling all the pages. :0)

[@kreed111311]

I have gone crazy doing these lol :) love the look for makeup storage!

[@misskitty7255]

oh my goodness i am not going to be bored on the weekends and holidays making these!

[@winniekeedy2340]

I love this, and will try it with my friends, who are all in their 80s and 90s. I am sure we can do it. We do a lot of crafts. Thanks for the info.

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Winnie, I'm so glad you found me! Good luck with your projects. Happy crafting!

[@ashleysophiepasamon6476]

[@MrCullen30]

You are very gentle . I like it that way. Love the ending,so peaceful. LOL thanks for sharing :)

[@01sarah29]

My mom and I did this. It was easy and fun. Ended up being a 4-H project one year for the county fair.

[@Habbyworldcouk-em7fy]

Very nice and informative. I like the way you are saying what you do every step of the way. Thank you for sharing your ideas.

[@groosemcloose]

Absolutley stunning. My teenage cousin has absolutley fallen in love with this idea!!! Thank you so much for this innovative and inexpesive tutorial!!!! No doubt I will try this :)

[@RedSoxFan3591]

I remember yearsssss ago using the 5 gallon ice cream container, they make wonderful containers for papers/dry goods. I also hve been making some using old nautical maps and rope for the cording, I also have anchor charms that I hot clue on the front, looks so great in a nautical room.

[@madeitwithlove]

Thanks for this really great tutorial. I'm going to create some of these things with my great neice next holidays, she just seven years old and I know she loves making crafty stuff.

[@myrnagomez2668]

very good I have been saving some container I did not know what to do with great idea, also I was thinking to use them for Christmas to put extra forks on the tables when using paper plates thanks for sharing

[@maplelassuk]

A fabulous idea! Thank you.

[@amberxoxo4303]

This is the cutest woman ever haha! Love her crafts!

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Thanks Florence, I'll bet your project looks great. Keep crafting and...Have fun with it!

[@rencexxy08]

Awesome! i watched this yesterday and made one today. so pretty perfect for my room but instead of cutting off the ends at the top i just leave it that way. kinda cute, looks like sun rays

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Hi ChaceBowz, Sorry I'm just getting back to you but I've been staying busy at the Craft & Hobby Association trade show in Chicago. If I remember correctly I used a coffee can from Trader Joes for the larger project. The can is actually made of the same light cardboard as those Pillsbury Poppin' Fresh dough biscuits and crescent rolls but only bigger. Take a look at the chip/snack isle at your local grocery store-cheese puffs or another chip/snack like Pringles but bigger. Or go to Trader Joes.

[@chloeskygirl722]

I love it,I'm gonna make some for my baby's first Christmas decorations. Thanks

[@Jennifr1966]

I need a can for serving utensils that must stay on the counter. This will be perfect! Most of my furniture is from the 1960s through 90s!

[@CaitlinElizabeth37]

This is so awesome! I'm definitely going to do this for storage for makeup brushes and things like that. Props to you for the awesome idea. :)

[@alysababey]

What a great idea! very pretty and creative

[@TeriToes]

I did a few with pencils and gave them to my Children teachers over the years :) Love the magazine idea going to have to give it a try

[@enabains9300]

thanks for the video! I'm gonna use this as a vase for art and then make some paper flowers.

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Ena, I love that idea!

[@ananyaroychowdhury7978]

[@ivettecolon4936]

Amazing and beautiful. So nice thanks for sharing.

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Thanks Ivette! I'm so glad you like my magazine roll-ups video.

[@Elena-fu7jj]

I used an cappuccino tin can and it came out really cute! Thank you for the idea! I actually have many of them, I may do more!

[@1huayna]

Really like this, have some good projects ahead.

[@moxygirl5806]

thats a great way to use up old magazines so do u just use a tin can or just any cup or bottle that will work

[@sheryleguinn4914]

You make things look sooo easy. Yes, u should have your own show. How about making baskets, and I made really big weaths out of the rolled paper for xmas cool project should put on utube...

[@TheBena54]

I love the rolled paper idea

[@FrugalMummy]

I love things like this, might I suggest adding the words, upcycle/ recycle to your tags. T These would make great standby gift holders/ extra gift. for example, add stationary to a pencil holder or wastepaper sized one for a toddler, child or even teen. Add homemade easter goodies and a ribbon handle to make a reuseable basket, add samples of beauty products and homemade vouchers as a mothers day pamper pack... add baby products/ clothes for new arrivals, etc etc.

[@iannaomivause6474]

Incredible what you can do with used magazines. Looks really cool and filmed so brilliantly and easy to follow clear instructions. The best video I have watched. Well done

[@musicismyhappiness1]

"That's what I call crafty." Well said, this looks amazing!

[@lmckee7]

Love, love, love this!!!! Thank you so much!!!!

[@juliehuynh05]

[@sewalidas767]

Nyc. Definitely going to try this.

[@brittanyMoore83]

Very neat idea, I will be using it for my after school program! thanks!

[@mikeruban]

[@jlatte4]

What a great idea, i am going to try this. Awesome!!

[@xbyemily]

So cute! Gonna try it right now! x

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Hi Emily, thanks for watching my crafty videos! I hope your magazine roll-up project turned out great!

[@LindaPenney]

Awesome update thank you for sharing have a blessed day

[@yvonnesharpe9869]

I did a few of these with the large juice cans. I made one this pass week with the coffee can to use as a remote container. there are so many of them. the paper I used on the coffee can is from calendars. they are stronger and very colorful. thanks.

[@punisurinder1391]

cxa

[@traveln3]

very resourceful, thanks for the demonstration.

[@PattieWackDesigns]

My husband and I are working on an online craft program with our business partner. We plan on going live with the show in 2013. It will be a lot of fun and gobs of crafts. You just can't rely on the networks to stay with anything when it comes to craft shows. Gotta "Do It Yourself"! :) Thank you for the nice comment.

[@issacsha2067]

I didnt even watch this video but looking at all the cments I say Hatss Off To You Mam #Outstanding

[@breannaluera945]

Wow thank u so much and by any chance where did u get the pipe cleaner that had no wire in it?

[@Jennifr1966]

My mother went to school in the 1930s, no bussing for her! She DID walk 5 miles to school, and sometimes in very high snow! 😂

[@DuctTapeSusie]

Thank you so much for this tutorial :) I mostly make crafts from Duct Tape and I love it, but I love to explore and try new things. This would make a great gift idea for the holidays!

[@luisarojas9271]

Hola, que precioso quedó esa decoración con papel eso es extraordinario muy lindo, tiene bastante importancia que el papel tenga colores, le quedó muy lindoooooooooooooo. Saludos desde Chile.

[@andraeb1]

i luv to make this,i already try it and it turns so nice..by the way ,where you can buy the white wire?

[@brimac106]

I have a school art assignment using rolled up paper. I think this would be great.

[@melchorapablo6800]

thanks for sharing your video.I"m tryin making bag"s there"s a lot more to learn.

[@sweetpuppy120489]

ur so creative...I love this project sooo much...this is such a good way to recycle...Please continue to make more vid, I love ur channel

[@MrMkirk23]

Something about the way this vids made that puts me in a relaxing trance.

[@quratanam]

omg i thought i was the only one who felt tht... i keep watching it just to get relaxed

[@daisydlapka7704]

me too....her voice is relaxed and she is speaking without compelling the viewers :)

[@ValyTraveler]

Can't wait to see this on "Project Runway" as a fashion/lowbudget challenge...

[@sairakhan146]

You are the best art teacher in the world

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Oh my goodness, Saira! What a nice compliment on my magazine roll-ups video. You're so nice!

[@sairakhan146]

THANKU

[@pantulina]

Wow.. Amazing idea! It's very interesting the decoration with wired. You should have a program to other countries. ;)

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Hi "whyhellutheree", just to clarify the video, you do not leave the pencil in the rolled up page. You make one rolled up tube and then slip the pencil out to make the next one. I hope that helps. :)

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Elena, I'm so happy that you enjoyed making this craft. I love-love this craft too. I'd love to see a video response showing off your projects! Thanks again for the comment.

[@sharonmelody97]

What type of white cord is that? What a great idea!!!!

[@shindujavikas4816]

I really loved this video.. for sure gonna try out!!

[@craftartpaper8967]

Awesome creativity. Thank you 👍

[@Arlcam777333]

Since this is paper will it hold up good? Is there anything that can be put on the paper to make it more durable or waterproof? I like this idea.. I am going to try it. Now I have something to do with all my magazines that I wanted to throw away but just couldn't. lol

[@gailmorley4137]

Thats easy enough...really good idea for old magazines,..🚴

[@PurdyBear1]

I love it., I'm definitely going to try this one.

[@CatrionaWhite1952]

Thanks for sharing, I will use this idea with my craft group

[@PattieWackDesigns]

Thanks Catriona, for watching my crafty videos...

[@anatrutin7458]

Catriona White se

[@HWolfe]

Great recycling idea!

[@PattieWackDesigns]

I used a cardboard coffee bean container from a store called Trader Joes. There are many kinds of snack containers that have the same shape.

[@nicoletanner3183]

What a neat idea!

[@riffatyasmin2284]

unique idea..v beautiful

[@moniklds]

Loved it! One question: For the finish, what else can I use if I can`t find the clothes line. What would be "smilar"?? Thank you so much for the idea and for sharing. Bless you :)

[@burgerlampost9434]

I have never thought of that! it is recycling too and keeps all my stuff tidy. Your shows are worth it to watch and should be on the Television. Do you have a website with all this in it?

[@sarahconnolly8223]

You got carried away!!!! That is cool!!! How do you do the end??? The flowers are cute!!!!! GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@PattieWack]

Hi Sarah, I really did get carried away. LOL You do the end by poking the last piece of clothesline behind the first one that you did. Thanks so much!

[@BrendaHite-lp5xj]

Very nice and great to recycle!

[@iiix3inlove]

@JonahGuerra I'm guessing no, because the pencil gives support to the magazine rolls and wont squish in. Ad because she rolled it diagonally, the magazine is lot longer than the pencil. Its wedged in. If shes gluing it in i dont think shes trying to get it out. Haha. But thats what i think :p

[@bryanna12345ful]

that was so cool maybe i should try would my friends and teach my siblings yah thankyou for making this video and yall dident have gluesticks?

[@bonniesworld.9661]

Nice. Very creative.

[@BanglewoodCrafts]

You are very creative. And, recycling items. Very cool. I have subscribed.

[@vivekwatson]

good work to hands and brain :P well done ma'am

[@pachambers]

Beautiful and easy. Thanks.

[@aaedhahmed8758]

I liked the idea that the new things are made

[@selfanalysishari2069]

All the ideas were really nice it is fanatic

[@silvanadearimatheia6559]

Lindo!!! Gostei muito!!!Eu irei fazer!!! Obrigada!!! Obs:Por favor ao invés de colocar este tubinho plástico nas bordas posso colocar tipo cadarço ,cordāo ou outro material?! Obrigada!!!! Abraço!!!
