Although the mini origami purses are cute I would go with the toilet paper - you will have everyone that sees it curious about how you did it.

I like both and would also enjoy having the "how-to" for the origami pockets...I have some grands that would love those!

Oops! Sent it before I read all the comments! Thanks for the link!

The toilet paper was a big hit with the red hatters a few years back.. I believe within a 2 week period I embroidered 4 dozen rolls. Anywhere from 6.00 to 10.00 dollars a roll. You can also embroider on bars of soap. Embroider some towels the soap and toilet paper, put in a cute basket , makes for a nice shower present. fun to do. when asked why would you embroider on those things my answer always was because you can. Put some in a gift shop and they also sell.
