    This is amazing. No one would ever know this started as a cardboard box. It’s making me wonder where I can find a box large enough to make a coffee table. Love that you used the pillow from your last video when staging. 👍🏻👍🏻🧡

    I make stuff with cardboard all the time. These included. A couple tips. 1). Fill an old Mustard bottle with your white glue and squeeze a stream out of it. Or get the squeeze condiment bottles from Dollar Tree. Just make sure whatever you use it has a fairly small tip. When you are covering a large surface with glue, use a slice of cardboard to coat. 2). Foam brushes in various widths are the only way to go when spreading the glue. 3). You can buy a gallon of Elmer's white glue at Walmart for $11., even cheaper for the generic brands. Much cheaper than dollar tree little bottles. 4). Look in your closet for an old blouse to ling it with or hit up your local thrift store. I'm so so so happy Karem made this video. Cardboard box chests are so much fun to make and although you need to take a couple more steps to add stability - they sell like crazy & fetch a sweet price! Love this video!

      Hello.I didn’t use enough glue to attach the paper firmly to the box. I also didn’t seal the box with varnish or mod podge so my paper did come up a bit. If you properly seal your box it should be good for a long time. ( as much as cardboard can last, of course). 🥰❤️
