Succulent Toilet Paper Cover
"This crochet succulent toilet paper cover is a creative way to hide a toilet paper roll while accenting your bathroom decor. As you create it, you’ll learn to make all sorts of interesting shapes and textures in single crochet. This fun project puts a modern twist on those toilet roll cover doll crochet patterns that many of our grandmas made in the 1970s, with a more understated vibe. Colorful cacti and succulents, with their striking architectural shapes and bold colors, complement a wide variety of decor styles, from contemporary to rustic. They lend a touch of sophistication to the kitschy, retro trend. The base of the toilet paper roll cover looks like a terracotta pot, which is filled with three types of crocheted succulents. It includes a cactus, a round succulent with layers of leaves, and one with dangling tendrils. This pattern is a great way to level up your crochet skill level. You’ll practice making several different shapes and textures, all with single crochet. And the pattern includes a full video tutorial with helpful info so even an advanced beginner should be able to create it easily."
