Making a cardboard console table


Cardboard console table

To make this console table, I first cut the template from flat cardboard. 18 profiles in all, as I used 3 sheets of cardboard for a single profile, and the piece of furniture is made in 2 main stages. In fact, there are 2 pieces of furniture assembled. This was necessary for future solidity and to obtain attractive legs, otherwise the legs would have been enlarged if I'd made them in a single step.

The table is plastered, the plaster always based on blanc de meudon.

Final stage cardboard console table

After coating, I paint it, using ebony-colored acrylic paint. Then I apply 3 coats of aquaréthane vitrifier to protect it from any water splashes. Please note! The drawer handles are also made from cardboard, and the paint used is a gold-metal acrylic. Thanks for reading. Marie
