My DIY Cardboard Skull Moodlight

ADVERTISEMENT

Hello.

I want to show you my second cardboard project.

The idea behind all this is to make some product which does not require complicated technologies to create. When I watch DIY videos, they are awesome, but when you think about what do I need to create these things, sometimes it takes too much skill or tools I don`t have. So I wanted to make something that will take the simplest skills and tools to create. The second problem was I like to model digital 3d models and wanted to make them tangible. For example, I want to make this 3d skull and hang it on the wall. But I do not want to 3d print it.

Those were the main reasons why I make my projects this way. And it is always a delightful feeling when cutting. You put all that together, and you can feel the shape with your fingers.

This project took me about 4-5 weeks. It is time-consuming, but in the end, I`m delighted and proud about the result.
