How to Make Crafts Using Cardboard Boxes
- 1). Transform a large box, such as a refrigerator box, into a hideout, model home, or other type of shelter. Cut windows and a door into the box using sharp scissors.
- 2). Decorate your box according to its purpose. For example, if you wish to make a ticket booth then include a ticket window and a banner of show times. Use paint to bring color to the building you've created.
- 3). Use a hot glue gun to place fake flowers or plants to the base of the building. This makes it look as if it's in situation in a garden.
- 1). Create a photo frame out of a cardboard box. Using scissors cut a photo-sized hole into any shape you wish, such as a triangle, oval, star or the traditional rectangular frame shape.
- 2). Decorate around the whole you've cut. Use glitter, paint, stickers or other decor to add style to the frame.
- 3). Tape or glue a photo onto the back of your cardboard photo frame to complete the process.
- 1). Stand a cardboard box on its side to create a dollhouse. Use strips of cardboard and hot glue to separate rooms within the house. Create two floors if the box is big enough.
- 2). Fill the dollhouse with small furniture and other miniature toys. Paint the outside of the house.
- 3). Add an A-frame roof by hot gluing two strips of cardboard in an A-shaped formation. Attach them to the top of the house.
