Hi, in this tutorial I show you how I made a fairy house lamp recycling some cardboard from an old box, egg cartons, pizza boxes, toilet paper tubes and two plastic bottles.

The only bought materials I used are the acrylic colors, the hot glue and the P.V.A. glue (less than 3$ in total). It took me about ten days to finish, including the drying time. Let me know what you think!

After cutting the bottom of a bottle, I glued a piece of cardboard to it like this

By gluing old magazines to the bottle, I made the “foundation” of the house

I also used old egg cartons to make it sturdier

I carefully applied the mass I’ve got onto the entire house
