Who said furniture has to be wood? Hit the park or the beach with these light weight, easy to pack and assemble furniture made out of up-cycled cardboard boxes and duct tape!
This set of table and chair are made of cardboard and duct tape only and weigh less than 4 pounds together. They can be easily put together and taken apart, and every component opens up into a flat piece. The 2 table legs become the carrying case when opened.
Materials you need :
- Cardboard: upcycle all those boxes! This project utilizes single wall corrugated board, but some improvement can be achieved by using double wall corrugated board. Will discuss that later.
- Duct tape: optional. It adds strength and colors!
- Tools
- Box cutter or Xacto knife, and good cutting surface
- Scissors for cutting slots (shown in next step)
- Measuring tape
- Drawing pen for marking the cuts and folds
- Straight edge and a butter knife to make creases
