Cardboard Kitchen


If I had not promised in my last post to start with the creation of the cardboard kitchen, I would not probably have begun this project yet. But I promised, so I had to. And imp has visited me, as AN would say in one of her posts: I have been haunted! First I draw the kitchen parts in the way I would like my kitchen to look like (honestly speaking, I do not need it at all:). It is only a rough draft, most probably the kitchen will not look like this at the end.

Kuhinja od kartona

Very soon the manic cardboard cutting has been started. At first I wanted to make kitchen in one piece, but I resigned of that idea very quickly, for two reasons. The length of the kitchen should be 2m70 and I do have a problem to find or buy so long carton pieces; on the other hand, I have terrible need to move my furniture once in 3 months.  In this way I give to the general house cleaning a higher goal.


So, what I got so far is a third of whole cardboard kitchen.I must admit, I'm very proud that I managed to make a cardboard door for which I am almost 100% sure it won't get destroyed by time. Here some images and in the next post I'll discover the secret of creating cardboard door.
I apologize in advance because of poor image quality, but I simply cannot catch the daylight on weekdays

Mobile bag with abstract motive

One more mobile bag has been created. Since it was question about urgent order, I could hardly get even this photo. But I promise, in some further posts, I will make step-by-step tutorial how to make such a bag by yourself. It's easy, it makes fun and it is ideal way to use rests on tissues that still didn't find better purpose and you feel too sorry to throw them away.

Cardboard mirrow

This mirrow is one of my first trials to make something out of cartons. In order to provoke me, and to make me lough a dear friend of mine said following, as he first saw it: "Wow, how great it is, and so practical! One can synchronously shave his underarms."  Of course this was not my aim:))) but he reached his goal. I didn't have any aim, the mirrow is not practical at all, but I did like the creative solution. And this one I got somewhere on the Belgrade streets, so I tried to make something similar. Here it is.

Skirt

Slowly I am coming back to the daily life. I cannot still start any carton project, so sewing... I made a skirt last night... However, I am still not sure if I should add some more details on the bottom of the skirt, any comment is welcome. First I wanted it, but later on I resigned of that idea.

Dress

I was off for a while, visiting seaside cost, enjoying every moment of it, and I really got some rest. I find it now pretty hard to return to my everyday life. I am searching everywhere for salty water, I envy the birds which will soon pack up and fly away. Eh...
Since I cannot still put myself together, here is again one of my earlier works. Sewing is my passion, the only hobby I always return to. And this is one of my favorite dress, although I wear dresses rarely.

Multifunctional cardboard shelf II

I was away for a while. The shelf took more effort than I thought. Maybe I was also overtired lately, so the fatigue took me under control. However, the shelf is now done, my niece is mostly responsible for the final decoration, as it belongs to her. I haven't made lot of photos this time, I couldn't reach it, she has already brought it at her place.

Multifunctional cardboard shelf


I have already mentioned that we have started a new project (my niece and I). This should serve mostly as a book-shelf, but regarding the chosen form, the parts of the shelf can be used as table or chairs or perhaps a flower stander... or whatever comes into your mind.
It consists of several basically separated boxes which have hole in the front part and some of them will have a hole on the back, depending on the inspiration in the specific moment.
Up to now we reached to create one box and a half, we aim to have at least 10 of it, we will decide it ad hoc. Here some images.
