DIY Individual Football-Shaped Utensil Holders

Make your Football Sunday more special with these DIY Football-Shaped Utensil Holders. Get the tutorial at www.drugstoredivas.net.

We are football people. Neither of us had a dog in the race this year, but we still hosted Football Sunday in our garage every week. We make food and broadcast the game on a wall in our garage via a projector. You can see the entire game from down the block, and it’s sort of a beacon to our neighbors. So of course, I try to be a little creative for our football parties, making things like these DIY Football-Shaped Utensil Holders.

They do take a little foresight because you’re using toilet paper rolls to make them. So in case you don’t save them all the time for craft projects, you’ll want to start saving them.

If you’re like me and you keep them, you probably have everything for these already. I did, so that make them super simple.

A can, decorated to look like a football, with gold flatware in it, on a tablecloth that looks like a football field with the words "DIY Football Utensil Holder" digitally written on top.

If you don’t want to make these individualized utensil holders, make our DIY Football Utensil Holder instead. That one is meant to hold enough flatware for your entire football gathering.

Fold the toilet paper roll in half and make a stiff crease.

Start in the center of the open end of the toilet paper roll. Use the colored pencil to draw a curve from there to about 1/3 of the way down the closed side of the toilet paper roll. Cut it out.

The utensil holder is a cute craft. But I wouldn't use toilet paper rolls for something that will be used for eating. I am not comfortable of using something from the toilet for the dining table. hehe

It's "near the toilet" not "from the toilet." ;]
