How to make a DIY cardboard house

Turn a shipping box into a tabletop house. Draw your own pattern, fit a pitched roof, and give the finished piece a style of its own.

Reuse and materials

Match the cardboard you have to a small gift box, a tabletop house, or a miniature dog house with a personalized sign.

Seasonal crafts

Turn small cardboard buildings into a holiday display with a town square, a winding path, and a coordinated gingerbread finish.
