The Wedding Contest 2010 as sponsored by Cheap Chic Weddings is an annual event. Contestants enter pictures of their toilet paper wedding dresses online. Some of the previous winners have such beautiful dresses, it’s amazing that they were made from toilet paper!

The rules state that contestants may only use toilet paper, glue, tape, and a needle and thread to assemble the wedding dress.

Hi Toilet Paper Blog Readers!

My name is Molly, and I just started here at ToiletPaperWorld. I will be helping out with writing posts for the blog. I will try to find fun and interesting things for you to read. Feel free to contact me with questions, comments or ideas!

To start off, I wanted to share an example of toilet paper art I found online. See the original picture on Flickr. What ideas do you have for making art with toilet paper?

Thanks to atomicjeep for the image!

I saw this awesome piece of Wall Art made out of toilet paper rolls and couldn’t resist sharing! What a great, inexpensive, eco-friendly, and creative piece of art. Haven’t seen one like this yes!   (Kudos to the YayEveryday Blog for the find.)

People often given Calvin Turrentine a weird look when he tells them his hobby. You might get weird looks, too, if you made sculptures out of toilet paper.

“A lot of people think I’m crazy until they see what I’m doing. After they see my work then, they believe me.”

Turrentine is a toilet paper sculptor, crafting forms out of water and layers upon layers of toilet paper. His favorite subject: animals. To bring these sculptures to life, Turrentine then paints them and sprays them with an adhesive to keep the shape and color from wear and tear. He uses recycled toilet paper for his projects, and says it’s a cheap hobby, having spent $2 on several rolls. That and the watercolor paints mean he can sculpt for less than $10.

Turrentine, who also makes metal jewelry, said he’d like to teach his craft to children in art classes and he may apply for a grant from the Durham Arts Council. Turrentine said it might take some time, but most people are convinced one they see the result.

“One of my friends … he said, man if I didn’t see it, I wouldn’t believe it, but I’m seeing it and I do believe my eyes.”

So how about you dear readers, do you have any toilet paper art you’d like to share?
