Is Toilet Paper Art Still Alive?

The Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Contest Rolls Out Kickstarter Campaign for a Creative Comeback

The Popular Charm Weddings Contest Returns for Their 20-Year Anniversary

BOCA RATON, Fla., June 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Get ready to roll! After a brief hiatus, the Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Contest by CharmWeddings.com is back, and bigger than ever. To celebrate its 20th Anniversary, the beloved contest is launching a brand-new YouTube web series and a Kickstarter campaign that goes live today.

The one-of-a-kind competition invites designers, artists, and DIY dreamers from across the country to create runway-ready wedding dresses, using only toilet paper, glue, tape, and thread.

"This isn't just a contest. It's a celebration of raw talent, fearless creativity, and the unexpected beauty of the unconventional," says Laura Gawne, co-creator of the contest. "We're inviting backers to help us bring this artistic phenomenon to life in the most fun and interactive way possible."

The Kickstarter campaign offers exclusive rewards for fans who want to go behind the seams of the contest's return and will be live for just 30 days. The YouTube series will feature Bold Gala themed runway looks to candid footage of the dressmakers in action! The series will also spotlight the personalities, pressure, and passion behind each roll of TP.

"This is the kind of creativity that deserves a spotlight," adds co-creator Susan Bain. "Our impressive designers turn an everyday item into couture level fashion, and we're thrilled to give them the opportunity, and our fans a front-row seat."

Immediately following the success of the Kickstarter campaign, the 2025 competition will officially open for submissions, inviting creatives to step into the spotlight.
