Since childhood, after books about knights or Sherlock Holmes, the concept of "fireplace" for us has become synonymous with comfort and warmth. Those who live in your house, if you have money and space easy to cause team, choose the right fireplace and soon enjoy the live flames. But in high rise buildings (and private homes, you know, too, are different, in some the excess stool will put) any way will not fit the necessary pipe, and the place under a fireplace is not particularly isolated. So to satisfy his desire for romance and desire for comfort remains to make a fireplace out of cardboard with his hands.

a fireplace made of cardboard with their hands

Choose a layout

Start with, decide exactly where you would like to see your fireplace. When compared with the real, the fake has the advantage that it can be mounted anywhere and make any shape. Fireplace out of cardboard with your hands you can even put in the corner, which had nothing to make, but the fireplace will fit perfectly. Then think about what the height and width of your product. It should not interfere with the furniture in the room should not suppress it, but to allow the fireplace lost in the background, say, bulky cabinets, too, not worth it.

Selecting a framework

In principle, a fireplace made of cardboard with their hands can be built only of this material. For a very simple will suit even fairly large box from under the furniture or office equipment. But note that the cardboard-the material is not too durable. If you want the output to something more substantial, go to expense a little and make for the base of the fireplace frame made of chipboard. Calculate how much your size will need sheets, what size they should be. In principle, this is the only part of the process of creating your fireplace, which will require foreign participation. But “stove” will be more stable and sturdy.

decorative fireplace out of cardboard

The easiest option

The easiest way to make raised fireplace from cardboard, using the package box. To do this, all joints are glued and the box that the cover has not been opened, and the walls didn't fall off. With a pencil, draw a hole in your “oven”, and then cut with scissors. To decorate a fireplace on your own. The fastest option – film-adhesive with patterned brick or natural stone. If you don't like, let's say you want to paint your fireplace out of cardboard, it is better to paste the box with white paper and when the glue is dry, apply the planned figure. Even if you draw all those bricks, they can give a more realistic view, of course, with a propensity for drawing.

Wrapping paper is necessary, first, because the packaging cardboard is usually brown, and the color you get. Second, the boxes always have some inscriptions, emblems, etc. They can lurks even through several layers of paint. However, if you want, pasting can be replaced with primer – you can buy in the shops trading in the goods for artists.

The Inner part is also important

Inside the box too would be to paint or paste over, otherwise the fireplace out of cardboard, made, will look not very plausible. You can hang the inner wall of dark cloth, and to put on the bottom a bright red.

For better stability on top of the box presumably “the mantle”. It is possible to use chipboard or MDF, raw or covered by the same self-adhesive wood or marble. If you do not have the right trimming, you can glue several sheets of the same cardboard (e.g. from another box). Mantel you will, however, stability of the construction, she added.

On the basis of particle Board

If you've opted for a more monumental version, you first have to brought down from the workshop frame. If you invented the fireplace stand provides a platform to start building the foundations wrong with it. If not – strays first case of the fire, and then his pipe.

Conceived As a fireplace out of cardboard with their hands to build, other finishes (drywall or artificial decorative stone) to tell will not. For finishing sheets of cardboard you can just stick on chipboard, but if you think cardboard is a bit thin, it is possible to glue the leaves (cutting out the parts that are appropriate for the fireplace) and put under load for the night. The next morning, smooth and thick cardboard upholstered fireplace itself. Then it is given the desired look (similar to how it was done with a box).

When we make a fireplace out of cardboard on the basis of particle Board, about its “inside” also do not forget. Still, he will be illuminated from the inside, and the wooden frame will be clearly visible.

Only cardboard, not box

If the plywood is to mess do not want a boxed version just seems too easy, there is another way how to make a fireplace out of cardboard. It will fit in the case, if you need a “oven” of unusual form, for example, triangular in cross-section or high, but flat.

First we need to make a “pattern”. All the details are calculated very carefully so that your decorative fireplaceBoard is not turned crooked. The cardboard is glued together in several layers, to make it more rigid. Under the weight of it will lie the longer, the more leaves you glued. Then made drawings of machined parts. Hold them between the tape, gluing paper strips. By the way, if you decide to stay on the tape, take the paper, for pasting of Windows. To the corners of the fireplace was rectangular, at least at build time you should use the corners – in the hardware stores sold plastic, they should be fine. And ideally within design, these parts would be good to leave for good. It is clear they will not, and strength, they just add.

Since this fireplace is assembled from parts, the inner side it can be treated before Assembly. To paint or paste over the cardboard still more comfortable when he's lying on the table or on the floor, not when it is standing vertically. And the holes in the furnace are of different size; if you choose a small, interior trim harvested the fireplace will have to show the wonders of acrobatics.

The Exterior side can be finished before Assembly, but in this case you may not match up the picture by gluing the individual parts, and the bonding angles will be seen. So the outside will have to paint to paste already on the fireplace. Moreover, if you choose painting, you first may need to Prime the surface to hide the adhesive tape.

Lighting Options

Any fireplace involves a flame. It is clear that the cardboard makes it impossible to use real fire. You can buy or make your own lamp, which simulates the fire. As a variant-to draw fire on paper, cut along the contour and attach to the hearth. The back is a dim lamp, and turns a very plausible imitation of an open flame. The disadvantage of this method is that thick paper will not show through light and thin – to fall forward or backward. The output can be wire frame, but it will have to bend as far as possible to the contour, otherwise it will be clearly visible in transmission.

Can be put in the center of electroshock or garland. Both best buy on batteries, not to make the fireplace a hole for a cord to a wall outlet.

However “flame” in the furnace for reliability it is necessary to put twigs, branches or logs.

Care of the fireplace

It Remains to ensure that the fireplace will delight you as long as possible. If the finish you have chosen the self-adhesive, special care your “oven” will not require – such films are usually moisture resistant, they can be wiped with a wet cloth. But if the fireplace was painted, for further care will have to cover it with paint. Then it can be cleaned from dust or accidental drops.

Now, in the evenings you can sit almost in front of a real fire and feel like a medieval feudal Lord.
