Crafting a Decorative Box with Cardboard Cake: A Step-by-Step Guide
Supplies Required:
Glue
Cardboard and paper
Scissors
Periods of Work:
Determine the size of the base box with three squares and two square shapes. Place one square in the center and the excess squares on its four sides. Remove the assigned shapes from the cardboard and paper.
Setting the Square Shapes:
Position the two square shapes to frame a quadrilateral crystal. Ensure there is a square in the middle surrounded by two triangles.
Cut out the assigned shapes from the cardboard and paper to match the components of the base box.
Building the Box:
Apply glue along the edges of the square shapes and squares.
Carefully attach the sides together to form the case structure.
Allow the glue to dry completely before proceeding further.
Final Touches:
Trim any excess cardboard or paper to ensure clean edges. Ensure all creases are securely stuck and reinforce if necessary.
Your box is now ready to be used for storage, decoration, or any other purpose you desire. Enjoy your creation!
Adding a Cardboard Cake Focal Point:
Cut a round piece of cardboard to act as the foundation of the cake. Stack smaller round pieces of cardboard on top, gluing them together to form the layers of the cake.
Decorate the cardboard cake with faux frosting made from paper or fabric, and embellish with beads, sequins, or other decorative elements.
Ensure the cardboard cake fits snugly in the middle of the box.
Enhancing the Sides with Colored Paper:
Cut pieces of colored paper to match the level and perimeter of the box.
Apply glue to the back of the paper strips and carefully adhere them to the inner walls of the box. Experiment with different colors and patterns.
Permit the paste to dry totally prior to dealing with the case further.
Final Touches:
Once the decorations are securely attached and the glue is dry, inspect the box for any loose edges or blemishes.
Trim any excess paper or cardboard on a case-by-case basis to ensure a flawless and polished appearance.
Your decorated box with a cardboard cake centerpiece is now ready to be used as a charming storage container or decorative accent in any room. Enjoy your creative masterpiece!
