To make the toilet paper pleated tuck design, you simply pleat a “square” sheet of toilet paper and then place it inside a toilet paper basket. It can also be done with a toilet paper diamond or any design where there is a pocket to insert the pleated square.
Toilet Paper Pleated Tuck Instructions
Step 1:
Tear off one sheet of toilet paper from the roll. Pleat (accordion-fold or fan-fold) the sheet into 8 or more sections.
|
Step 2:
Compress the folds into a tight stack.
|
Step 3:
Fold the stack in half so the raw edges of the toilet paper are adjacent to one another.
|
Step 4:
Connect the two edges together so the left half and the right half of the pleated toilet paper are joined. See below.
|
  
Bring together the two raw edges of the toilet paper. Make a small valley fold so the two sheets are joined together. Valley fold one more time to lock the two layers together. |
 
Step 5:
Rotate the fan-like model so the locks are behind. |
