How to make a chair out of paper

A small stool made of paper can be used as a decoration or a toy in a makeshift dollhouse. You can do this craft for 15-20 minutes.
To make it, you need only a piece of paper or cardboard and a little patience.

Simple origami paper chair patterns

A miniature stool is very easy to craft using the origami technique. To do this, you need a sheet of paper measuring 20x20 cm. Schemes for manufacturing can be found on thematic sites and download from the Internet.

There are also many books on this technique. However, it is quite possible to experiment, and create your own scheme. There is a very simple scheme for making a chair, understandable to both adults and children.

Follow a strict sequence of actions:

• It is necessary to take an ordinary sheet of paper in the form of a square and fold it horizontally.
  The larger it is, the larger the chair will be. Accordingly, from a small piece you can make a very tiny product.
• Next, return the sheet to its original state and fold already half the paper horizontally.
• Similarly, we horizontally add the other half of the sheet.
• We unfold the sheet and begin to fold it in the opposite direction.
• Carefully cut one of the sides, and bend the rest in half.
• We wrap one corner so that we get a corner. We do the same with the other side.
• We direct the lower part up.
• We wrap the side parts on each side. By configuration, they resemble the walls of a chair. The resulting product is already visible.
• We unfold the craft, straighten it and give it the outline of the desired product.

REFERENCE! An ordinary chair from a simple origami scheme is easy to craft in 5 minutes.

IMPORTANT! In the origami technique, strictly follow the recommended actions and try to do all the bends most accurately with the smallest error.

The steps of making a chair out of paper with your own hands.

Consider creating a paper stool in stages. This option is quite difficult to implement and may not work out the first time.

Carefully read and repeat the following steps:

• Take a square sheet of paper and bend it diagonally two times.
• At the same time, return the sheet to its original position each time.
  It is important to make the diagonals visible.
• Next, you need to get the horizontal bend line. To do this, we also bend the sheet and immediately return it to the straightened form.
• We take the sides and connect them to each other so that we get a triangle.
• We bend the left edge and direct it to the center. This is a kind of mark at the bottom of the triangle.
• We direct the right tip to the obtained mark, and then we tilt it down.
• We bend the lower part twice so that the product is thinner.
• We bend a small corner in half and direct it to the left side.
• Next, straighten it. A thin object must be inserted into the corner.
• Then we straighten the corner and see a part very similar in appearance to the leg of the future
  highchairs.
• Next, make another leg.
• In exactly the same way we get a small but noticeable mark and bend the right side to the center. And bend the left corner to the right side to the mark and bend the corner back and down.
• Then the lower part must be bent in half.
• We repeat all the steps for the second leg in the same sequence. As a result of the work done, the chair already has two supports.
• We proceed to the manufacture of the third support.
• The second part of the right corner is tilted to the left.
• The lower corner is tilted back up to the line located vertically.
• We bend the left part to the right, and we direct the lower corner up. We open, straighten and get a small figure in the shape of a triangle.
• We bend in half and get the third leg of the craft.
• The fourth support can be made using a similar and already developed technology as the previous one.
• The sharp corners of each leg are bent up.
• We make the back of the product. To do this, bend the top of the workpiece back in the opposite direction.

A simple way to make a cardboard chair

As a prototype, you can use a regular home chair or other furniture. It must be scaled to a miniature format and write all the dimensions of the future crafts.

Consider the main steps in creating a chair from cardboard:

• We draw on the cardboard the components of the future product. These will be four strips for the legs of the chair, two parts of the seat, the crossbar, the back.
• To start, we will make the legs of a chair. They are made from a rolled up sheet of paper.
• We connect the legs and the first part of the seat with glue.
• After the adhesive has dried, we glue the legs to the second part of the seat.
• For greater strength and reliability to the legs of the chair we make a kind of cross-bar-partitions. Everything is like in a real big chair. They make the craft more stable, which makes it possible to plant a favorite doll on it.
• We connect the back and seat together.

There is an easier way to make doll furniture:

• To do this, the cardboard sheet must be connected in the form of a cylinder with a diameter equal to the seating area.
• Next, you need to put the cylinder upright and outline the height of the chair and its legs.
• Next, you need to cut out a piece of cardboard in such a way that it turns out a kind of ottoman without legs.
  So that the doll can sit on it, empty space is filled with paper and the seat is glued.
• The chair is ready.
• You can leave it like that, or you can paint or decorate.

ATTENTION! You can use different in quality and texture of cardboard. It can be layered, matte or glossy.
