DIY old farmhouse using Cardboard boxes/ Karton kutudan maket ev yapmak

Making a miniature model house from a cardboard box is a fun craft project that you can do with simple materials. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

Materials:
1. Cardboard box (preferably medium-sized and sturdy)
2. Craft knife or scissors
3. Glue stick or fast-drying adhesive
4. Colored cardstock or paper
5. Thumbtack or nail
6. Wooden stick or toothpick
7. Colored paints
8. Paintbrush
9. Pencil
10. Ruler

Step 1: Prepare the cardboard box
Use a craft knife or scissors to trim the edges of the cardboard box to make them even, if needed.

Step 2: Draw the basic layout for the house
Place the box upright and set aside the top part, such as the roof, to determine the walls and base of the house. Add doors and windows in the desired shapes. You can draw them using a pencil or ruler.

Step 3: Cut out the walls
Place the cardboard box on a flat surface and cut along the lines you drew to create the walls. Be careful while cutting so that the walls are cut neatly.

Step 4: Cut out the windows and door
Add windows and a door by making cuts in the walls. Use a craft knife to make the cuts safely. You can also make cuts inside the windows to create a glass-like appearance.

Step 5: Fold the walls and glue them together
Fold the walls at a 90-degree angle and use fast-drying adhesive or a glue stick to join them together. Make sure the walls are joined carefully and have a sturdy structure.

Step 6: Add the roof
You can use a separate piece of cardboard or the top part of the box for the roof. Attach the roof by using two equal pieces as beams. It might be a good time to paint or cover the roof with paper before attaching it.

Step 7: Add accessories and paint
Decorate the house as desired. You can add furniture, plants, accessories, and even miniature people. You can also paint the house in different colors to give it a vibrant look.

Step 8: Create the base using wooden sticks
Cut wooden sticks or toothpicks to an appropriate length and glue them to the base to provide support for the house.

Once the miniature model house made from a cardboard box is completed, you can play with it or use it for decorative purposes. Whether you create your dream house or recreate a real house in miniature version, this craft project will provide you with hours of fun.‪@ArttimesCraft‬
