DIY Dollhouse Miniature Tudor High Back Seat Using Cardboard


I previously created a Tudor style bed from recyclables for my dollhouse and wanted to create a matching seat. I have videos posted for the Tudor Bed on my You Tube Channel just click the video (below) and head into You Tube and subscribe.

 
Here is the box I received from friend mail that I used to create my Tudor style bench seat. I saw the package had a unique rounded portion and I knew it would be used for a project.


I'm simply shaping the cardboard into the shape of the seat I desire. In the video you will see what I used to help keep the chair bends in place. 
These are the pieces I found from the Dollar Tree crafting department that I am using for the decorative elements on the chair These come in many different shapes.

I'm simply choosing the shapes I want to use. I turn them around and place the glitter portion against the cardboard. I don't want any glitter spreading on my piece.

I hot glued the pieces down and started mixing the paint on a paper plate. I chose black and brown paint to do the base of the seat. I will use several coats. 

The chair has several coats of paint now.  I will let this sit and dry and repeat the process. In the video you will see I added side pieces to the chair to give it a more complete look. Although, I am not done I'm very pleased so far. I will come back with Part 2.  Please subscribe to my channel to see the last step of this project.
