How to make paper and cardboard stand-organizer “Elephant” for the tablet

paper and cardboard stand-organizer “Elephant” for the tablet:
On our desktop, where the whole family is engaged in creativity, are always accessories. One of them – the tablet, usually show some series, a regular review of interesting gizmos, workshop or just playing music. In this master class you will learn how to create a stand for such a satellite creativity with his own hands.
So, let’s begin!

Required Material:
beer board thickness of 1.5 mm, a sheet of 250 × 300 mm (I had two sheets of 250 × 200 mm at hand);
beautiful sheets of paper, one of at least 9 “x9” (229 × 229 mm) and 2 A4 paper (I used 3 sheets of paper for scrapbooking 305 × 305 mm);
adhesive (for example, “Moment of Crystal”);
scissors;
line;
stick to scoring.
Additionally, to facilitate the manufacturing process, can be used:
board Creasing (preferably inch as customized sizes just under a);
model knife;
mat for cutting;
metal ruler;
plotter.
Now we need the sketches “Elephant.” To maintain the correct dimensions, the image should be printed on A4.

The first two designs for the board – this is the framework of our stand. Printed, pasted on a sheet of cardboard prepared and cut. it is not necessary to cut out on the first page of the ear at the elephant, it is there to guide. We cut out the details of the plotter. But there is a nuance, plotter companies Silhouette can cut through the cardboard beer 1.5 mm, even a knife for cutting deep. I cut the usual knife to the maximum depth, then dorezayu modeling knife.

On the second sheet of the boxes are arranged to the last detail. In the sidewalls have top and bottom. When cutting, it is desirable to label them, then to avoid confusion (see. Photo). The arrow indicates where the top.
The remaining two files can be printed directly on a beautiful piece of paper, which will hide the frame of cardboard. It is necessary to bear in mind that you need to print on the back side of the paper. And also cut out. The dashed line, in the diagram designated fold line.
The first step will collect elephant ears. I prefer them to do different in color from the base color stand to emphasize their presence.

Apply glue and you can use an old credit card to evenly distribute 🙂 Ready ears are set aside, they give us is no longer needed. And go to the sidewalls of an elephant. First glue outer sides, those with the ear hole. By the way, about this hole … You can not cut, but I cut, because then it is easier to glue themselves exactly ears.
We give a little dry, and can be glued inside. Bends by first fold lines on each of the paper components. Do not forget that should have two mirrored parts, but not the same (see. Photo).
Now you can paste them. The adhesive can be applied to cardboard, guided by the slots for the side walls.

Then start collecting box. Glue all the pieces to one of the elephant’s side. First the sides and then the bottom. All parts have to enter the end of the slots.

The attentive reader must have noticed the mistake. I became interested in photographing process and mixed direction sides. Later I will tell you what it will turn back to me. After we have collected this part of the box, it is desirable to quickly paste the second side of the elephant. The fact is that when the adhesive dries thoroughly, we will not be able to correct the symmetry of the sides. And this, in turn, will affect the stability of the finished stand. The slots for the connection, I specifically made with a small gap, this will allow us to align with the need of an elephant at this stage of assembly.
After a complete frame assembly elephant set on a flat surface. And make sure that all the legs and trunk rest on this surface.

If all is well, let it dry. So that will not shift anything in the further work.
Dried up? Now you can paste the elephant ears.

Next we will refine a box for small items. I used paper for scrapbooking 305h305 mm, left of it are two trim width of just over 3 “(about 8 cm).
I have already said before, the size of a box fitted with an inch, as we have in the presence of plaque for scoring from Martha Stewart.Dimensions in millimeters will be put in brackets, they can be rounded up to integers.
We need a long strip of exactly 3 “(76.2 mm) and long 10⅜” (263,5 mm). This will be the outer part of the box. Folds will be from any edge on ½ “(12,7 mm), 3⅝” (76,8 mm), 6¾ “(153,1 mm) and 9⅞” (229,5 mm).

Scoring can be done without the board on the mat for cutting

Corners need to slightly undercut, at about a 45 ° (cf.. Photo).

As a result, should get a band, wrap the entire outside of the box and curled inside edges … I recommend to try it before gluing. If everything is exactly the size, the band will go tight enough to not work nor any gaps. After that you can be glued.

At the edges, the corners glued strips is recommended to take a stick to creasing, or something similar, to press tightly against the edge to the frame.

In any case, you can check the structure for alignment. If everything is in order, then put off to the side of an elephant and begin to make the inside, a decorative box. Here we need a sheet of 9 “x9” (228.6 x 228.6 mm), I will use the same sheet skrapbumagi, as well as for the whole elephant. Cut the desired size and outline the fold line at a distance of 3 “(76.2 mm).

Then we put on them and well ironed

As a result of these steps, the next work piece should get:

Now we make four incisions, like the following picture, so you can collect the box.

Assembled without glue box you need to try.

It also should include tight, but still go. After a successful fitting can be glued. As it is not extremely important, but I prefer to do all four sides equally (see. Photo).

Well and still collected a box to paste in our elephant. Glue is applied to the inside of the carcass. Otherwise, if you put glue on just glued box when installing it in place all of the adhesive remains on the outside and the risk to stain the whole elephant.

Now that’s what caused my inattention. Remember, I mixed up the direction of the sidewalls of the box? So, these walls have turned lower decorative portion and protruding edge. I had to trim it in place, and it is not very convenient and turned koryavenko. In the photo seen below, by how much.

Sam elephant is ready, you can exploit
Phew .. It seems to have coped. I hope that someone will come in handy. And if you like it, put the Huskies and subscribe. For this single respect, and a ray of goodness in your face

How to make a cardboard room dresser with drawers

Today is the story of how they took me to the “weak.” Background to this. My dear husband, watching from the sidelines as I have done for his future workshop organizers, somehow casually said: “A chest of drawers to make the most – weak?”.

And that’s not weak! The idea is good – it is necessary to embody.

Making it big or small does not want to, so the size is determined to pretty thoroughly, as a result of it I turned 60 cm wide, 30 cm deep, 40 cm high.

Required material for the manufacture of chest:

  • Bookbinding, beer and corrugated cardboard
  • Kraft paper
  • Calico, flax
  • Clay time carpenter, furniture PVA glue Moment Crystal
  • Decorative handles 5 pieces
  • A pair of scissors, a knife construction, square, steel ruler

Sidewalls cut out and glued them together Because gofro-beer and cardboard.

Then, under a shelf on which to stand the boxes, I cut out of thick corrugated double extra sidewall (if you do not have a double bellows, then glue the two sheets of corrugated among themselves) in height, they are the future of the boxes, between the sidewalls do gap of 0.7 see – is the thickness of the shelves when they dry out, paste them calico.

The thickness of the side wall of the chest turned I 1, see, here this centimeter inside of the bottom will be less, and the outer side of cardboard beer more, then the side walls arise, both in the groove and the outer angle is smooth and beautiful.

On the back wall pasted an additional panel of double corrugations, it will draw the top shelf, the panel is fitted a calico.

Middle shelf of double corrugations, covered with calico, but the top shelf has turned me into two parts – the lower side (calico) made of corrugated cardboard, and the upper side (county) of binding cardboard. I stuck to the fabric glue PVA furniture, it is quite thick and therefore does not soak the cardboard, besides dries leaves no residue on the fabric.

The slots and the end of the shelves smeared glue Moment Crystal base and gathered chest, here and form emerges. Honestly – time to dry out a lot of details, especially the need to ensure that the details are not led, so they dry under pressure. The main helpers in my dry parts were building a hairdryer and a conventional iron. I dried up details to iron an iron (no steam) and put everything under the press, all the details I then get smooth and the obvious-e-strong Yen.

Jumpers I made of several layers of cardboard – Binding cardboard, corrugated and then back Binding cardboard, fitted a calico and drying again 🙂

And here is the back wall – and if I had had doubts at the beginning of the production chest, now they are gone, and my husband has a sarcastic smiles, and looks with interest!

Now pull out a roll of kraft paper – which is an excellent paper, it really helps me in the construction of houses – and here is very, very useful, before she had to beg in the mail, and now it turns out you can buy at any hardware store. All angles on the dresser sizing kraft paper, flat area and at the same time securely fastened. The width of the side wall in my 30 cm, so the flax I cut width of 35 cm, was enough to bend to the rear wall, as well as 0.7 cm on the front side.

Sizing flax whole stripe – 40 cm + 60 cm + 40 cm, slightly pulling the sides, land dryer, and then makes an incision, but not completely, leaving 0.5 cm Nedorezov strip and are bent inward.

The inside of the sidewall I cut out of cardboard binding and it was stretched linen.

On the back wall, cut a piece of linen, tuck it did not, because getting unwanted thickness, so pull out the sewing machine and shoot on the edge of the rear part decorative stitch, it will prevent crumbling edges, and at the same time decorate the back wall.

Well, the base is almost ready, and I will proceed to assemble the boxes.

Glue them from binding cardboard – glue Moment Crystal, most importantly, to sustain the angle when prikleivaetya bottom off the drawer. After drying, all the corners of the sizing kraft paper and glue Moment Joiner.

Then I take a piece of linen cloth, cut out so that at one end has the edge, paste starting from the middle of the end portion of the box, exactly where I will be out front. The edge should come about 1 cm, overlapping edge strips.

A neat corner is not difficult to obtain, most importantly, do not cut it off from the edge, and leave about 0.5 cm from the corner and glue corner of the overlap, but watch out for, so that an overlap was not large – 0.5 cm is sufficient crop of flax I have not thrown away, they gave me very useful to align the bottom of the box.

When drying linen to become very strong and the box, respectively, too.

Now the beer from cardboard I cut and paste the internal parts of the bright calico, then pasted them in a drawer – first the bottom edge of the sheeting on the walls of the box infer and also sizing, extra bracing never hurts 🙂 then the side wall.

The bottom of the boxes I have to decorate in the same way as the back wall of the dresser – turned out smoothly and beautifully. The front panel is in the boxes will serve about 0.5 cm beyond the edge of the box, I cut them from binding cardboard and fitted a calico polka dot, two tones – red and brown. Decorates the front panel of a small insert of flax, I calculated how long needed a strip on one such box, multiply it by three, added centimeters to bend and cut a single strip of linen, then defer drawing on the machine, and then to cut the strip into three parts drawing all received the same. So I did the same on the lower drawers.

It remains only to paste faceplates on the boxes and screw the knob.

But I also have not yet made a small pocket under the instrument, first thought simply glue the rectangle and in it the cells, but not too interesting turns, and then my eye caught a paper tube, I did an example, look good, but it is only enough to two pockets, and they need me 7-8 pieces, that’s only because of what they do, turn the kraft paper is quite long and dry, again, hard, and then see how the husband gathered up all my scraps of cardboard and tries to shove the stove to clean up the mess and burn! Nightmare! Well, how can you – it’s a building material, my hamster fainted After a brief fight, winning, twist from scraps of corrugated tube!.

How I did it:

  • – Cut a strip of cardboard with a longitudinal section;
  • – then the strip of kraft paper is twice longer than the strip of corrugated cardboard;
  • – are coated with adhesive kraft paper;
  • – take the paper tube is wound on her corrugated;

– tightly pressed corrugation to the tube rolling on the smeared adhesive kraft paper, pick up a hot iron and then start to iron for this length of the tube, the corrugation becomes smooth, without corners, kraft paper is securely bonded, and I get a smart, smooth and I desired a strong tube diameter.

7 do such blanks, then trimmed to 4 cm and a polustolbik receive here. Adherend workpiece between a crystal and an adhesive torque cushioning inner piece flax. Then I got carried away and forgot to take a picture as is pasted strips of peas on the front side, but, in principle, it’s obvious that the edges of the strips come into the fold and they are not visible on the front side. And for the brushes I made a special glass higher.

All end of the rep I plastered my favorite band in the peas.

Well, that’s it – my chest is ready!

Even high brush finally found my place 🙂

Chest turned out quite roomy, even the fur was a place.

Thank you that you had the patience to watch until the end!

I would be very glad to hear your opinion about this dresser!

How to Make Desk Organizer

Beautiful Green Lawn Desk Organizer:

Cut blanks of different lengths, so I cut up with a hacksaw, the edges were not very accurate,

so I had not much work cloth. The result you can see in the photo.

Treat the inside, I used just such a striped adhesive film. Getting to the outside. To thread went smoothly and not get dirty, I used double-sided tape. It is so easy and simple, did not even notice how reeled all the blanks. The bins were found scraps of flooring. For foundations took the correct size plate and cut out a circle of her coat. To cover plate used cardboard all the layers are glued to each other. The cut tape pasted “bindweed”. The most difficult as I thought, it’s sticking tape on the upper section, well, not as did not want to be stuck on the inside. Scrapie together and taped already in place, for the strength of used gum. As you can see, one workpiece is not processed from the top, is the future needle bed. So I fascinated by design that I forgot to take a picture continued. You see the result, I think everything is clear. Here such I turned daisy meadow. Here’s another option.Thank you all for your attention.
