Cardboard cabinet

Cardboard box cabinets are the most common type of puppet furniture. There is cardboard in every house, and the rest of the components will not be difficult to get. The following tools will be needed:

• Cardboard
• Skewer made of wood
• Stationery knife
• Glue
• Scissors
• Wire
• Awl or thick needle
• Decorations

Creation technique:

1. Make the necessary measurements. You need to know in advance the width and length of the future cabinet. After that, four details are cut out of cardboard: two backs, bottom and lid. They check whether their dimensions coincide with the size of the future cabinet, after which they are glued in a rectangular box. This is the basis of the cabinet.
2. There are partitions in any wardrobe. To create them, two rectangular strips are cut out, slightly smaller than the side strips, and glue them into the closet. Using an awl or a thick needle in the walls of the cabinet, skewers are made. She has the role of the bar, on which hangers will hang.
3. In order to place the skewer in the cabinet, its ends are slightly pulled with a stationery knife. Then they are inserted into the holes and fixed in them with glue. And so that it froze, the product does not touch about 1 hour.
4. Small rectangles are cut with the same width as in the side planks, and they are fixed inside the cabinet with glue. They will serve the regiments in the future. It remains to make hangers.
5. For their manufacture, expanded paper clips or thin wire are used, which is bent manually. The clip, on the contrary, is extended. One edge is bent by hook, and the second is made with a triangle.
6. The closet remains to decorate. Since the doors do not rely on him, he is painted or glued with colored paper from the inside and from the outside. Children will like to glue stickers or rhinestones on it.

Wardrobe

The cabinet can be made of different materials, but the easiest and most amazing - newspaper tubes. The “paper vine” is called and they will give a puppet wardrobe a very unusual look. For work you will need:

• A lot of newspaper sheets
• Glue
• Scissors
• Hot glue gun
• Cardboard under the basis of the cabinet
• Decorations
• Wire
• Reiki

Process of creation:

1. The manufacturing process begins with the preparation of tubes. The newspaper leaf carefully bend from one edge, glue the corner, and smoothly turns the sheet into a tight tube. The corner remaining free is glued to the tube. Such paper "vines" need to be twisted at least 60 based on the size of the cabinet.
2. Take a cardboard-Osnov. Wooden rails are attached to the corners with hot glue. They are needed to give the stiffness of the structure. Then, several tubes are glued along the perimeter of the base vertically. When the glue hardens, the remaining tubes begin to pass through them, as when weaving a basket. The ends of the tubes in those places where the walls of the cabinet should end and doors begin to start, touched and sealed.
3. The doors are weaving separately. Two segments of wire are taken as the basis, which can be stuck into the base and cabinet cover. Two rectangular doors weave them and attach them to the closet. He is completed.
4. The cabinet can be decorated with acrylic paint or felt -tip pens. Button or beads are glued to the doors as pens. Under the bottom of the cabinet, legs made of glued together small cardboard squares are glued. It should be remembered that such a cabinet is not designed to store heavy objects.

Cabinet in a juice box

Boxes from under the juice are just perfect cabinets for dolls. They do not need to attach the wings, they are large and durable. To make a cabinet in a juice box you need:

• The box itself
• Scissors
• Glue
• A piece of wire
• Paper for decoration
• Jewelry, buttons, beads - trifles for decoration

Process of creation:

1. The box is washed from the inside to remove the smell of juice. After it dries, carefully cut it with a clerical knife. They make incisions in the middle and around the edges so that the back panel of the box opens like a wardrobe.
2. In the upper part of the box with an awl or thick needle, two holes are made. This is a groove for a bar, which is made of wooden skewer or wires woven together.
3. Cellly boxes are used as shelves. They can be glued as it is by sticking one on another and using the inner compartment as a box, or you can use only the outer part from the boxes. To do this, its upper part is removed, and the side is lubricated with glue so that they are more reliable to attach to the walls of the cabinet. After that, the cabinet is not touched for about an hour so that the glue is dried.
4. It remains to glue jewelry. Beads are glued to matchboxes like handles, and the cabinet itself is glued with stickers or fabric. The puppet cabinet looks especially interesting if it is glued with household napkins.

There is nothing complicated or costly in the manufacture of puppet cabinets. A small waste of time more than pay off the positive emotions of the child from the new object of the puppet interior.
