First, take one bottle and cut the bottom part only (the bottom line of the bottle). After that, take the second bottle, then measure three squares of lines from the bottom. If so, cut the part with scissors or a knife. So, the size of the second bottle is bigger than the first bottle, yes. Then, tidy up the cut marks on the bottle.

Next, make a hole in the first bottle piece. Then use it as a lid for the larger bottle piece. That way, this tissue holder can be used immediately. You can take the tissue and roll it up a little so that it can be inserted into the bottle. After that, take the middle part of the tissue and pin it to the middle part of the bottle that has a hole.

To make it more aesthetic, Instagram user @siti_setyowati_ decorated the tissue box. She attached ribbons to each line on the bottle to disguise its texture. You can also add other decorations to make this tissue box more beautiful. Once it's done, place the tissue directly on the table to make it easier to use.
In addition to used bottles, there are many alternative materials that can be used to make aesthetic tissue holders easily. Used cardboard, for example, can be cut and decorated with wrapping paper or patterned fabric to make it look more attractive. Used cans can also be used as tissue holders by adding a layer of paint or hemp rope for a rustic touch.
For those who like a natural impression, bamboo or used wood can be cut and assembled into a sturdy and unique tissue holder. Even flannel or used cloth can be sewn into a practical and easy-to-carry pouch-shaped tissue holder. With a little creativity, simple materials available at home can be transformed into an aesthetic and functional tissue holder.
