Cardboard Furniture Links
I adore vintage decorating books. The classic, Nomadic Furniture, was my home decor bible all through the 80’s. I spent hours fantasizing about all the amazing cardboard furniture projects I was going to make some day.
Well, that day hasn’t come yet, but I keep on dreaming. Here are some of the cardboard furniture projects I found available on the internet.
I’m constantly amazed by all the things that can be done with a material that most people consider nothing but trash.
