A Cute Sharon wrote me about Toilet paper holder, and I thought it would be interesting showing some Japanese ones here. EVERY Japanese house has TP holder on their toilet, all as beautiful as these ones. The TP frame in Australia is different, so it needs a different pattern for the holders. Anyway, I think that would be some inspiration for your next project.

They are all really cute! Thanks for sharing these holders.

Hi Yoriko, so sorry to hear about your foot. You have made me feel nostalgic for Japan. There is so much that is so different in your country and all so useful. I liked the heated loo seats...
Take care and dont over do it with your foot

I miss Japan too. I'll have to go there by June, can't wait to see my family...

Those are really interesting and unique designs.

Wow! We learn everyday. I love the one with the pink flowers

These are all very cute indeed! I think this pattern would work on any holder, not just the ones shown - they look really nice and hold a spare just in case! Thank you for showing these examples as inspiration! Hope you get well soon!

Thinking that I had quite a collection of these in Japan, and I threw them away...I regret, could adapt or something.

Get well soon.****

Take care Yoriko and thanks for these TP holders.

Take care of you, yoriko, I like your picture especially the one with roses.***

Waow, some are originals, others are very beautiful!!! I'd like to find a pattern to make a similar, I likes!!! thanks Yoriko*

take good care of your foot, and thanks for these wonderful tp holders, never seen some like these before, hugs *4

I can see the toot roll holder has some kind of cover over it maybe we can use the simple pattern and just place a couple of loops at the top or button holes and we can hook it up for the Australian toot rolls I like the idea of the flap and it lends it self to some nifty embroidery ideas such as instructins for the men of the house how to put on a new roll when one runs out not just use it and leave it laying around and partially unravelled.

I found a simple pattern, but it will not work for every TP frames. You will see that on Japanese one, it has a gap behind the lid, allowing the holder go through. This link is for a Japanese site, you can see the pictures, they are very clear to understand, or put on google translator, but the translation is not good :)

Thanks for the link; cannot determine if the pattern would work for my bathrooms, although I do have different types of holders. Will try to make one. Very cute!

did you get carried away or what? Love them. Beats my" Butt Why Per" toilet paper covers!!

I will put my two cents in & vote for the one that looks like crochet .In some OLD crochet books you can find these designs to hand make.As my dad would say thats a pretty crappy deal HE!HE!carolyn

Never thought of decorating a necessity like the TP holder but these are beautiful.

Yoriko, these are so interesting - I have never seen anything quite like these....so, you are so talented...you should create one for embroidery!!!! What do you think? Hugs, Laura*

Love the pictures Yoriko. I never imagined that the toilet paper was displayed differently in other parts of the world.
Thanks,
Jacqueline

These are all super nice! You wouldn't have to take a book with you, just admire the tissue holder. Hahaha! Judy...

Interessante Yorico, nunca vi assim. Adorei o segundo(2) estampadinho em rosas. Ia ficar muito lindo, lá no meu sítio.
VC já acordou? eu estou jantando...
bjs

Well, well what will they think of next? Some cute designs there Yoriko!

I still think the "outback" toilet roll holder is a beaut!!!!!!!!!!!! ROTFLMBO!! although not necessarily rolling on the Toilet floor!!!

Love and blessings Chris

by sueo 23 Feb 2010

So funny but do you think the guys would still change the roll when you need a new one.

by jacquipaul 23 Feb 2010

Reminds me of the things we made at camp.

by sewmom 23 Feb 2010

by smithandsmith 23 Feb 2010

Great idea,,, perfect for the ones who don't want to get a new roll and take off the old one,,, lol

by tmbache 23 Feb 2010

Never seen before either!! Neat, but how does it stay behind the other roll you are using and still have a spare just in case!! Hugs and flowers to you all

by sueo 23 Feb 2010

Love the idea, is there a pattern available that we can make them from?

by jacquipaul 23 Feb 2010

These are wonderful; it makes me ashamed of my unadorned toilet paper rolls.

by sewmom 23 Feb 2010
