Collage Cubies : Folding Flat Collage into 3D Cubie
Collage Cubies Project Guide:
Folding Flat Collage into 3D CubieBy Chris Dunmire The Magic of Cubing your Collage CompositionPut on your paper model engineering hat! We're now going to take your finished flat collage and turn it into the inevitable 3D Collage Cubie! You just may have to be a little patient with this process to get your folds just right, but in the end it will be well worth it!
Step 1: With the collage facing down (die-lines up), slightly pre-fold the box sides where you originally scored them. Then apply a generous piece of double-sided tape to the 'collage side' of all five tabs.
Step 2: Bring up the sides of the box and secure the first two tabs to the inner walls as illustrated. Carefully align the sides before sticking things together.
Step 3: Ready the second set of tabs (seen at the top) by folding them flat. Secure the "top" of the box onto the taped tabs.
Step 4: Repeat the above with the last single tab and the remaining box side. Got it all 'squared' away? Your Collage Cubie is finished!
Step 5: You've worked hard! Take a few minutes to look over and enjoy your piece of new, innovative artwork! Wasn't that fun? What will you do differently next time? You're not feeling like a bit of a square, are you? Move on to the BONUS FUN! Next: BONUS Collage Cubie Creativity » © 2005, 2007 Chris Dunmire. All rights reserved.
