In the blog post we give the step by step video instructions on how to make the forest model with den using cardboard
Creating a forest model with a den using cardboard, waste paper, glue, animals, and color paper can be a fun and creative project.
Let’s build a 3D model representing a forest scene with a den for animals.
Materials needed:
- Cardboard (for the base and structures)
- Waste paper or newspaper (for creating the ground and den)
- Glue or double-sided tape
- Small animal figurines or cutouts (to represent forest animals)
- Color paper (for trees, flowers, and other details)
- Scissors
- Marker pens or sketch pens
Step-by-step instructions:
- Base:
- Cut a large rectangular piece of cardboard to serve as the base of the forest model.
- Ground:
- Crumple waste paper or newspaper to create a textured ground surface for the forest.
- Arrange and glue the crumpled paper onto the cardboard base to cover it completely.
- Den:
- Use waste paper or newspaper to create the den. Form a small hollow or cave-like structure and attach it to the ground on the cardboard base using glue or tape.
- Trees:
- Cut tree shapes from color paper. You can make different sizes and shapes to represent various types of trees.
- Attach the tree cutouts to the forest model using glue or tape.
- Animals:
- Place small animal figurines or cutouts around the forest. You can use toy animals or cutouts of forest animals made from color paper.
- Flowers and Plants:
- Cut flower shapes and other plant shapes from color paper.
- Arrange and glue them around the forest to add more details and make it look vibrant.
- Labeling and Details:
- Use marker pens or sketch pens to label certain features, such as the types of trees or animals present in the forest.
- Add any other details you want to include, such as butterflies, rocks, or a small stream.
- Decorating the Model:
- Use markers or color paper to decorate the forest model and add more details to make it visually appealing.
Now, you have a 3D forest model with a den made from cardboard, waste paper, glue, animals, and color paper. This model can be a creative and interactive way to showcase a forest scene and its elements.
