This video is not only funny but SO USEFUL!

I never noticed the relation between the diameter of a toilet paper roll and the 1-1/2" circle punch - what a great idea to use that tools!

And the tip with the stencils and especially the hint to cover it with contact paper is so clever!

I'm now off to rifle through some old Cosmo's to find some potential stencils...

Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial!
