Wall decor with cardboard boxes and fabric



Recently while cleaning the house, i found a few cardboard boxes which occupied a lot space. We really dont need them anymore. So, I gathered them all and thought of doing something useful with them. I came up with the idea of wall decor with cardboard and fabric. I have some clothes which i no longer prefer to wear. So, i tore them up used in the process.

These pieces are made with shoe box, cereal box, diaper box, camera box etc.

MATERIALS REQUIRED

Cardboard boxes
Fabric
Cellophane tape
Stapler
Scissors

Using scissors,Cut the cardboard in a way that it has 2 inch sides on all the 4 sides. Use the tape to seal the edges. It should look just like a canvas. Cut the fabric an inch more than the cardboard. Pull the opposite edges tightly and staple them. Fold them nicely in the corners and staple the other 2 opposite edges. Ta da...ur wall art is ready.

Make a bunch of them in different sizes. Hang them on the wall by using push pins. It gives a colorful look to your room with no cost.
