First, bent one side of the toilet paper roll (Picture on the left).

Then at the crease paint a line with one of your colours.

Pour some paint on your plate and add some sand. Keep on adding sand until the consistency is rough like sandpaper.

Step 3: Painting

Paint your toilet paper under the line you painted earlier.

After that drys undo folds and paint a second coat of normal paint on the first.

Then, paint the top part of your toilet roll that isn't painted the second colour.

Step 4: Assembleing

Take the Nut and glue the end.

Then, push the ends together and hold it until it drys.

Then glue the extra part of the cardboard together.

You're DONE!

Now just screw it on and boom a DIY lava ledge
