Making children's crafts made of cardboard requires considerable effort from the young performer - it is not so easy to bend tight cardboard with small fingers, so he will need your help, especially in the initial stages of learning how to make a craft paperboard.
In order to make the products beautiful and neat, use some simple recommendations:
- to ensure that the bends are smooth, the coal is sharp enough, and the edges are smooth, use a so-called trowel, with which you can press the cardboard to the work surface when bending. It can be made from a small plaque or an unnecessary comb;
- For a more accurate and reliable gluing you need to smear glue elements that are glued. If it is necessary to glue two parts of different density, it is smeared with glue thinner;
- for gluing pieces of cardboard is better to use a dense clerical glue.
