DIY toy castle. Do-it-yourself cardboard castle: how to make an original composition with your own hands

For a building with three walls and towers, you will need the following materials:

• Styrofoam - 5 sheets measuring 100 x 60 cm x 3 cm
• Insulation for pipes "foam", diameter 110 mm - 4 pcs x 1 m
• Decorative plaster based on colored chips - 1-2 large cans
• small stone or marble chips- 1 kg
• Acrylic paint to match the plaster - 1 can or can
• Dark acrylic paint (black or brown) - 1 can or can
• Plastic flower pots (for roofs) - 2 pcs.
• Glue for polystyrene foam (for example, "Moment Installation") - 2 large tubes
• Long screws (for flagpoles) - 2 pcs
• Mounting foam + gun - 2 cans

Instruments

• Thin knife - 1 pc, screwdriver - 1 pc.
• Meter ruler, short ruler, felt-tip pen or marker.
• Narrow paint brushes - 4-5 pcs.
• Spatula - 1 pc.
• Large brushes for painting teeth - 2 pcs.
• Insulating tape - 1 pc.
• Modeling mass (black or brown) - 1 pack

Stage 1. We draw a diagram of the future structure

First you need to determine the constituent parts of the future castle - the number of walls and towers. I offer schemes of three types of walls that can be combined in any quantity. I decided to start with three walls and six towers - three round and three square. You can start work from any wall.

Stage 2. How to make a DIY wall layout

WALL-1. For its manufacture, we need two sheets of foam (preferably white color) and two plastic pot for flowers.

This is what she looks like in ready-made:

We draw a scheme of walls

On one sheet of foam, draw a diagram of the wall with a felt-tip pen. She will be the carrier. The height of the towers is equal to the height of the sheet. The width of each tower is equal to the width of the cache-pot (roof) minus 1 cm. The distance between the teeth must be at least half the width of the teeth. The height of the walls and the middle part is approximately two thirds of the height of the towers. At the edges of the wall, it is necessary to leave 5 cm of an area free of teeth. You will then hide this part under the tower. Carefully cut out with a knife. In the middle part we cut out the gate. We do not cut out windows on the towers.

We draw blanks of towers

On the second sheet of foam we draw blanks for towers - 6 pieces, 3 for each tower. The size of the blanks is equal to the size of the towers. We cut out windows on four blanks. We do not throw away the cut pieces, they will later be useful to us when painting. We glue the tower blanks on top of each other on the load-bearing wall in the place marked for the towers - glue two blanks on the front side of the wall (glue the blank with windows on top), glue the second blank with windows on the front side bearing wall. As glue, you can use Moment Installation glue. If you intend to use a different adhesive, be sure to first test on scraps of Styrofoam to see if the adhesive is corroding the Styrofoam. The same goes for colors. As a result, we get a wall with two towers, each of which has a thickness of 4 foam sheets. There are blank windows on the front and back walls of the towers. Windows need to be painted inside with dark paint. You also need to paint over the inside of the gate arch and the gate itself. If the side walls of the towers turned out to be protrusions due to the discrepancy in the dimensions of the blanks glued to each other, it is necessary to cut the towers on the sides, aligning the side walls.

We try on the "roof" on the towers. The cache-pot should be freely put on the tower and go on it by 1-2 cm. Please note that after painting the dimensions of the tower will increase by 5-10 mm. Therefore, if the "roof" is difficult to put on, then the tower must also be cut.

After the dark paint dries, a “lattice” can be made on the gate. To do this, using a ruler with a screwdriver or scissors, we make deep grooves in the form of a lattice on the painted gates so that unpainted light foam shines through them.

Painting the castle walls

Let's start with the teeth. Painting the teeth with plaster is the most time-consuming operation, so they must first be painted with paint to match the plaster, and the composition itself can only be placed on the front and back sides. You can generally not cover the teeth with plaster, but paint with paint from a spray can in a contrasting dark color, as we did on the third wall.

So, first we paint the teeth with paint to match the plaster. We use spray paint to paint over each tooth from all sides. Let's dry. Then we cover the front surface of the wall-1 decorative plaster. At this time, it is better to lay window openings with pieces of polystyrene foam so that the plaster does not get inside. The brush should be fairly hard and clean. After painting, if possible, it should be washed off the plaster and put into water. It is better not to use one brush more than twice because of stuck plaster. We are not painting the side walls of the towers yet. We will paint them last. We leave the wall blank-1 to dry in the sun for two days. After two days, we turn the product on the back side and also cover it with decorative plaster. In the meantime, it dries, you can do other walls.

WALL-2. For its manufacture, we need two sheets of foam.

This is how it looks in finished form (the outermost prong on each side then had to be cut off):

This wall is a variation of the first wall. Only here the tower is in the middle, and the gate is on the side. In addition, the teeth, as well as the tower, are cut from another sheet, and the windows are made through. Windows on right side the walls are lined with tabs painted dark. The windows on the left side are through. The height of the walls and the tower is equal to the height of the sheet.

So, we mark the gates, windows and a place for the tower on the first sheet. We cut out all windows, incl. and on the tower, we paint the cut out pieces of windows in a dark color. Then we paint in dark color the openings of windows and gates, as well as the gates themselves. After applying the plaster, you will need to insert the dark pieces of windows on the right side of the wall back into the openings. Leave the rest of the windows blank.

From the second sheet we cut out two blanks with windows. We make windows on the same level with the windows located on the tower, on the load-bearing wall. Separately, we cut out two or four blanks for the teeth for the right and left parts of the main wall. We glue the tower blanks on the front and back sides of the load-bearing wall, aligning the window openings. Then we also glue the teeth - on both sides of the load-bearing wall. I glued the teeth on only one side, using only two blanks, because. originally planned to make an extension behind the second half of the wall. The tower is made up of three layers. The thickness of the tower can be increased by adding an additional false wall glued to the front side of the tower (as we did when making wall-1).

Do not forget to leave the edges on both sides free from 3-5 cm teeth, which will then be hidden under the towers, and make rectangular cutouts for joints measuring 3 x 1.5 cm along the edges with back side walls.

We paint over the teeth with paint to match the plaster. After the paint dries, we cover the front side of the wall with decorative plaster (you can not cover the teeth with plaster). Then we sprinkle a part of the wall around the gate with small stone chips and, patting, melt the crumbs into the plaster. Crumbs can be sprinkled on the second half of the surface. After that, we leave the entire structure to dry for a couple of days, while we ourselves will be engaged in the manufacture of the third wall.

WALL-3. For its manufacture, we need one whole sheet of foam and pieces of the sheet remaining after the manufacture of the second.

This is how it looks in finished form (the extreme teeth then also had to be cut off in order to hide the edge in a round tower):

This type of wall is quite simple to manufacture, but looks quite impressive. Three glued on the main sheet retaining walls and teeth. Teeth are painted acrylic paint in a contrasting color. After painting with plaster, the wall is covered thin layer stone chips.

The teeth on this wall have a more complex structure - top row formed from wide teeth (3x3 cm), and the bottom row - from narrow ones (4x1.5 cm).

We cut out the teeth from strips 10 cm high. To do this, the strip must be divided into 3 parts - 3 cm high, 3 cm and 4 cm high. On the first strip 3 cm high, we cut out teeth 3 x 3 cm in size, the distance between them is -1.5 cm. On the lower strip with a height of 4 cm, we make a triangular cut at an angle along the length of the entire strip, leaving a strip 1 cm thick at the bottom. After that, on the lower strip, we cut out long teeth measuring 1.5 x 4 cm. The distance between the lower teeth is no more than 1.5 cm Then we paint the teeth with paint using a spray can and a thin brush, carefully painting between them. The teeth can be painted either to match the plaster or in a contrasting color.

Then, from the remains of the foam, we cut out three retaining walls in the form of triangles or trapezoids, the height of which should be at least a third and not more than half the height of the wall. We glue the supports and teeth on the main wall. Do not forget to leave 3-5 cm free from teeth on both sides, which will then be hidden under the towers, and make rectangular cutouts for joints measuring 3 x 1.5 cm along the edges on the back of the wall.

We put the structure face up and cover everything except the teeth with decorative plaster:

Then we sprinkle the entire surface with small pebbles, gently pressing them into the plaster.

While the third wall dries, you can paint the reverse side of the first two with plaster, if their front sides have already dried by this moment. Lastly, we paint over the sides of the towers, placing the walls on the end. Let each side dry for two days.

Now you can start working on the corner round towers.

Stage 3. Round towers of the knight's fortress

For the manufacture of round towers, you can use any thick pipes of the desired diameter that can be processed with a knife, for example, “shells” for pipe insulation made of foam. If they are not there, then you can use a heater for pipes of the "foam" type with a diameter of 110 mm, sold on any construction market.

For the manufacture of three towers, we need four meter pieces of foam. From each of the four pieces we cut off cylinders 8-10 cm long and cut out teeth half the height of the workpiece. We cut the ring of teeth along the height and glue them on top of each of the three towers, wrapping them around the main part of the tower. We cut off the missing pieces with teeth from the fourth workpiece. While the glue dries, for a better fit, we fix the seams with electrical tape.

Next, on each tower we make longitudinal cuts along the length, equal in height to the height of the walls (60 cm) and in width - a little more than twice the thickness of the walls. The width of the cuts can be increased after painting, when you insert walls into them.

For variety, one or more towers can be decorated with an additional cylinder with high narrow windows. The overlay is made from the remaining fourth piece of foam.

While the glue dries, we paint over the windows on the tower with black paint, and only after that in three or four steps we cover the elements with plaster, turning them by 90-120 degrees. Carefully paint over the teeth.

While the towers are drying, you can start making small parts for them and walls, such as roofs, flags, coats of arms, cornices, small windows. The number of details depends only on your imagination and patience. You just need to keep the proportions.

Metal buttons and stripes can be used as a coat of arms. Flags can be made from colored self-adhesive paper, but it is better to use self-adhesive film. We stick the flag on a long screw. Screws are screwed into plastic flower pots. We paint the cache-pot in red, drawing some details with black paint. The coat of arms is attached above the gate with the same plaster or glue.

Masonry elements can be added to rectangular towers and walls. To do this, you can use the black modeling mass, which is sold in children's stores and in the stationery departments. You can also use plasticine, but the advantage of the mass for modeling is that in air, unlike plasticine, it freezes.

We made the roof for the middle tower from half paving slabs black color.

By the way, after the plaster on the round turrets dried up, and the towers stood in the rain for several days, the plaster began to move away from the foam near the edges of the cut, as Orange peel, and we had to additionally glue this “crust” with Moment Installation glue. Helped.

After drying, you can proceed to the most important stage - the assembly of the castle.

Stage 4. Assembling a medieval castle

Despite the fact that the design of the castle allows it to be moved to any place, it is still better to assemble the building on the site where it will stand.

The site for the castle must be prepared in advance. It should be flat and preferably without a slope. We made a castle to decorate the pond, so our platform had a slight slope towards the pond, which added additional difficulties for us when installing it. In order for the castle to stand evenly, it was necessary to cut the walls at an angle from below, since the foam plastic, even covered with massive plaster, is easily cut.

Having installed and connected the walls to each other, it is necessary to tighten the entire structure around the perimeter with a rope or cable, and then “glue” the walls at the joints with mounting foam. After the foam dries at the joints, remove the rope and begin to install round towers. To do this, we put the towers on top of the corners of the castle, inserting the walls into the longitudinal cuts made in the towers. If the cut is small, we increase it to the desired size so that the turrets fit snugly against the walls with outside. The missing part of the towers on the inside of the castle can then be formed using polyurethane foam. We tightly press the edges of the cuts to the walls of the castle, if necessary, supporting each tower with stops, and fill the towers from the inside with mounting foam, making small protruding slides on top. In addition, it is possible to form the missing parts of the turrets from the inside of the building using mounting foam. To do this, we form a ledge at the junction of the walls desired shape from the foam, and after the foam hardens, cut off the excess with a knife and plaster. We limited ourselves to what we covered internal joints plaster walls.

After the foam dries, we carefully cut off the slides protruding above the towers with a knife so that a flat area is formed on top, which we also cover with plaster.

Then we remove all the remnants of the foam in the places where the towers adjoin the walls and paint over them with plaster. After that, the castle must be covered and allowed to dry for two or three days until the plaster is completely dry.

Now you can move on to the last step - highlighting.

The final stage. Building lighting

Undoubtedly, a castle built with your own hands will decorate your site at any time of the day. But it will look most impressive in the evening if you make a special highlight.

As a backlight, you can use diffused light fixtures on solar panels to be placed inside the castle. Then, through the through windows and open gates of the castle, located on the second wall, a faint light will stream at night, enlivening the castle and giving it mystery. And solar directional light fixtures built into the “stones” and installed outside will illuminate the walls from all sides.

But to illuminate the front wall, it is better to use a stationary directional light, into which a color-changing light bulb is screwed. And then the effect will be extraordinary.

And finally, a few more practical tips.

If you wondered how to create a paper castle and decided to build a semblance of this medieval building in your room, then you need to be patient and try to keep your creative fuse. The work ahead is both painstaking, and interesting, and very exciting.

If you are an unsurpassed romantic, adore stories about valiant knights without fear or reproach, then you have every opportunity to completely recreate the atmosphere of the Middle Ages. The solution is how to create do-it-yourself castle, will allow not only to make a castle indistinguishable from a real one with spiers, towers, defensive fortifications - embrasures and other things. Feeling all the charm of needlework, feeling like a creator, you can make a whole medieval city with knights, ladies, enemies and friends and deploy a whole knightly world in your room!

Stages of work

Before you create a castle out of paper, you must first prepare the site for this and the “building” materials necessary for the work. The choice of the location of the castle will be presented to everyone to choose independently. And to create and erect the building itself, we need several work items:

Picking up and preparing everything necessary materials for work, we proceed to such an important and absolutely necessary stage as the creation diagrams of individual modules-blocks our castle.

A castle made of cardboard, the schemes of which must already be pre-drawn, you must begin to create with your own hands from such an entourage element as jagged turrets. They are obligatory element in our planned construction, since it is precisely such towers that make a castle from the Middle Ages recognizable. This is where a tube comes in handy (from under towels or toilet paper).

Step one

Top of the paper or cardboard sheet draw a line - this will be the base of the teeth.

Step back 1cm down

At an equal distance from one another, draw 6 vertical lines.

Let's paint over those elements that we will need to cut out so as not to make a mistake and not spoil the material.

Cut out the teeth.

Important! If you use toilet paper tubes, then you can leave everything as it is. If they were not found and tubes from towels are used, before using them, they must be shortened by 4-7 cm

Now it is necessary to color the towers, we draw window-loopholes at the same stage.

Stage two

We dedicate this stage to the erection of the walls of our medieval knight's castle. A paper lock, the scheme of which you already have in store - you can make it yourself or download it from the World Wide Web and print it - will be more durable if building material Not paper, but cardboard will serve. From it we will need to cut 4 rectangles with a width and a height of 6.5 x 9 cm. You can start the decor - painting them with watercolors under ancient stones.

Important! For decor at this stage, we use only 3 walls. Let's put the fourth one aside.

We apply gray watercolor on three selected walls, waiting for drying, after which we draw stones of arbitrary size and shape with a felt-tip pen. For credibility and believability, you can add cracks from hitting battering rams.

Stage three

A paper castle, the templates of which must already be prepared in advance, we continue to build with our own hands as follows.

According to the previously created template, we cut out the borders of the gate on the 4th fourth wall of the castle. They can be opened and closed. They can also be painted to look like a tree by adding forged ties, a lock and hinges.

We paint the wall itself, framing the gate, like the previous three walls.

Stage four

We take a tower-tube. We divide its circumference, armed with a ruler or tape measure, into four uniform sectors. We mark them with a simple pencil (it can then be quickly erased with an eraser). We cut two adjacent marks into a length of 6.5 cm. We will really need them at the stage when we will connect the tower with two of the castle walls. In the same way, we make incisions on all other towers (we choose the number of them ourselves, depending on which particular “tower” pattern you indicated on the preliminary scheme of a medieval building.

Now we connect the towers with the walls with PVA glue. Traditionally, they are made in the amount of four - one for each wall. You can add both the number of towers and the number of walls. It doesn't have to be a "stone pocket" of a standard square. You can also make a pentagon.

Now connect 4 (or more) towers with stone-painted walls, including the one on which the gate was “erected”.

Now our castle is ready!

But it's too early to relax. We don't have a roof yet important elements the buildings.

Stage five

1. According to a pre-prepared template from brown cardboard, we cut out the future roof.
2. We take felt-tip pens and paint it under the tiles (semicircular "pockets" or "tongues").
3. We fix the roof on the tower that you have turned out to be the highest (this will depend on the tubes you have chosen).

Important! According to the instructions, this ends arrangement of tower coverings. But what can prevent you from decorating the rest of the towers with such decor?

You can also cut out black (metal-like) narrow flags with two narrow tongues from cardboard, if desired, and attach them to the towers on a match or toothpick. Here opens a long road before your imagination.

The main part of the construction of the castle is over!

Now you need to take care of fixing the castle to the foundation. Any solid and flat material can serve as a foundation, from thick cardboard to plywood. It can be a wide modeling board, a plastic dish mat, an old cabinet door, and so on. Surely in your home you will find a surface that is unnecessary for others, but suitable for your business. Sustainability is especially worth considering if the craft will be used not only as a decoration, but also as a game element or a gift. In this case, ordinary PVA glue will not be able to provide the necessary stability. You will need duct tape here., preferably wide.

Fixing with adhesive tape should be subjected to each building of the castle complex separately. It should be fixed from the wrong side. However, if it is appropriate, you can “veneer” the entire castle with tape. It will become shiny and will look great in quality. decorative element game room.

It is clear that the possibilities for optimization, decorating and decorating your new castle there are no limits. But still, a few tips may give you some ideas on how to make a castle as similar to a real one as possible.

For a quick start, in order to save time and not do everything thoroughly with your own hands, you can stock up a template and castle diagrams in advance, finding them on the request “model of a medieval castle”.

For a quick decoration of the castle, you can use spray paint. It will be very fast and beautiful.

If the castle is created as a gift to the fair sex and your plans do not include the creation of a gloomy stone bag with gargoyles or villains inhabiting it, then you can move away from the traditional gray color and paint the castle in more bright colors. Any paint that is designed for coloring will do. paper products.

Various animals, trees, even a garden can be included with the castle layout.

Guards armed to the teeth may stand near the gate.

If a large and fascinating history, then the interior of the newly created castle can also be arranged: make round table, behind which valiant knights, the throne room, the king's bedroom, the princess's bedroom and more will gather.

Do-it-yourself cardboard crafts for children will most of all occupy the attention of parents and heirs if they meet the vital interests of the growing baby. It almost always turns out that not a single family manages to buy all the Barbie houses they want, or castles for Disney princesses, or parking lots for cars.

Furthermore! This is not necessary, as psychologists and conscious successful parents advise us. The unwritten rule says the following: a child should get only half of what he wants easily - from the store shelf, and he needs to “earn” the other half. And here it is appropriate not so much to demand good behavior, promising an incentive purchase of a toy, but to captivate the child with the joint construction of an exclusive long-playing model.

Cardboard opens up truly limitless spaces for you - for creativity and construction for your children's favorite characters. Let's look at two cardboard crafts that any parent can do with their own hands!

DIY cardboard crafts for children. Castle-scene with cruciform design

It is no coincidence that we introduce you to this idea. Evaluate it carefully to understand its main and remarkable advantage: you can play with such a building anywhere, because it is quickly and completely disassembled! You will not have any difficulties in transporting not only from room to room, but also to a picnic, cottage or kindergarten.

In addition, the very principle of the cruciform representation of the walls allows you to create not only castles, but also shops, a school, a pharmacy and a cafe. In general, all those buildings and social circumstances in which your baby happens to be and which he may be actively interested in by the age of 2 or 3.

What do we need:

• Cardboard from boxes (household appliances, dishes, computer peripherals)
• Simple pencil, eraser and ruler
• Scissors and construction knife with replaceable blades
• Any means for decorating walls (pencils, paints, self-adhesive different colors, fabric, colored tape and paper, remnants of wallpaper after repair)

How we build:

• We draw a template with a simple pencil, carefully matching the dimensions of those slots with which the walls will be connected into a full-fledged three-dimensional structure.
• We cut out the relief of the walls at the top and through doors on each wall. It is important here that thematic figures for games with crafts pass into the prepared holes.
• Color and decorate - as you like!
• We insert the two halves into the grooves - and you can start the game!

DIY cardboard crafts for children. Simple big box lock

We suggest you build another option - from the very regular box from some small household appliances akin to a vacuum cleaner or a food processor. When choosing, the main thing is that the cardboard box is large enough for the baby.

The set of tools is the same as in the do-it-yourself craft above.

What we do in an effort to diversify everyday life for children:

We connect the fantasy by choosing a fairy tale or trusting a spontaneous story about a beautiful princess and valiant knights. And with pleasure we devote more than one evening to playing together with a young lover of the Middle Ages!

We hope that the children we want to attract to you, presented to you with our own hands, will bring a lot of joyful communication and joint creativity to your home!

In the days school holidays kids need entertainment. Show them how to make a DIY castle, a palace to play with. They can make small building to launch dolls here or a grandiose building with which you can play at home or on the street in the country.

How to make a cardboard castle?

Take:

• corrugated cardboard or big box, for example, from under the refrigerator;
• scissors;
• stationery knife;
• scotch;
• glue;
• paints.

You can make a castle out of cardboard so that there are only walls. Take two sheets of this material and use a stencil or freehand to apply elements such as a Christmas tree, clouds, snowflakes here. It will be seen that this outer wall and it's snowing.

To make a stencil drawing, lay it on cardboard, then apply paint with a sponge or foam rubber.

Then you will need to make cuts for windows and doors. To do this, use a clerical knife. Trim the top of the wall with scissors. There may be various towers, and brickwork. Now make a cut in the middle from the bottom to the center on one rectangle of cardboard, and from the top to the middle on the other. Connect these two elements crosswise. You will have four open walls. If there are several children, they can even play hide and seek here. The templates provided will help you make this product.

Here's how to make a cardboard castle using just two large sheets. And if you need to make such a structure for dolls, a small box will do. Draw square windows on it, and cut it out on top so that you get a loophole. Cut out a staircase from the top of the cardboard box. To let the toy characters go inside, make a drop-down door. To do this, cut it only from above and from the sides, and then you will lift it with the help of two threads glued here.

If you wish, you can then paint these walls with the children on the outside so that they resemble masonry. You can cut out the knight's coats of arms to also attach them. It will be interesting for a child to play with such a castle.

If you wish, you can stick adhesive tape with a pattern of bricks here for this.

If you connect the coats of arms on a thread, you can hang them on upper part structures. Print the presented heraldry elements, then cut them out and use them.

You can make a castle consisting of 2 boxes. At the square, cut off the top, decorate the place of the cut, make windows. Take the second box, which is narrower, put it in the first one, also pre-arranging it.

You can take a white packing box. It is brown inside. When you form the elements of this structure, you will get a beautiful two-tone color.

A castle with towers will look beautiful. To do this, take cardboard sheets, cut them into rectangles on top. Roll up other sheets of tube to form the base of the tower. From other remnants of this material, you need to make cones. Turn them over and fasten them to the rolled elements.

Draw on yellow paper brickwork, cut it out and glue it in some places. Here's how to make a cardboard castle.

You can make a small one using scrap material.

How to make a toilet paper roll lock?

Take:

• toilet paper rolls;
• red paper;
• scissors;
• pencil;
• bushing from wide adhesive tape;
• white paper;
• silver cardboard;
• white cardboard;
• markers;
• small toys Kinder surprises;
• glue stick;
• scissors.

To make a cardboard castle, first prepare the necessary ones. It is necessary to cut three circles from red paper, cut the napkin into squares with sides of 2 cm. Make the same blanks from white paper.

To make roofs for the tower, fold the red circles in half and in half again, cut on one side. Now bring this edge to the one next to it and glue it.

Take the bushing, put the Kinder surprise toy next to it and see how high the entrance should be. Also define its width. Draw this door with a pencil and cut it out.

Take sheets of cardboard, fold their tops a quarter and draw stripes here to put the toy here and determine the dimensions of the entrance.

Draw them and cut them out. Draw with black marker wavy lines on red roofs to make it look like tiles.

Now glue two squares on opposite tops of the sleeve. Glue the tower here with their help. Do the same with the rest of the blanks.

Take the squares cut out of sponge paper and glue them so that they turn into tower windows.

Draw crosses here with a felt-tip pen, which will help you understand that these are windows. Also, using this tool, apply a characteristic pattern on the door.

On each sleeve with a clerical knife, make cuts from the bottom to the middle. Now insert pre-prepared walls into them.

Now the child will play with pleasure, will invent entertainment for himself, connecting the past and the present. If he wants to make a gate for the car, then let him take two bushings and cut them from top to bottom on one side. You also need to use a rectangle of silver cardboard. It must be folded in half and cut out the upper part so that it becomes rounded.

Entertainment for young children is done in just an hour. You will verify this now.

How to make a palace with your own hands - master class and photo

Girls from childhood dream of being princesses, and the like. beautiful house they will surely like it.

To make it, you will need:

• large cardboard box;
• scissors;
• stationery knife;
• adhesive tape.

You can use just such a box, making a slot for the entrance on the side, and a window on the other. To make the window openable, cut it on three sides only.
