Toilet Paper origami

This might be taking inspiration from an "escape" to a whole other level. We've all seen how many hotels will fold the first sheet of toilet paper into a triangle right? Well, now you can have that simple luxury at home! According to this site, in Japan (why does that not surprise me) a man has created an automated machine called a "Meruboa" that will instantly fold your top sheet of toilet paper into a triangle. But the fun doesn't have to stop there!

Why not take the simple triangle and go even more elaborate? Here are a few more toilet paper folding ideas, such as a fan fold (inspired by this hotel), or for the really advanced, the "tuck pleat" fold. I guess this could give any bathroom guests something a little more interactive than just trying to sneak a peak inside your medicine cabinet... (via Craftzine blog)
