3D Cuckoo Clock

Assembly Instructions

This can be purchased here

I have tried to lay the templates out to help make it understandable  as there are quite a few parts to this project

The front of the clock that shows in the middle of the parts is the main front the other one is for the decorative paper.

So if you look at the main front on the mat you will see 5 parts the same colour these are the sides and along side those in a darker blue are the decorative parts for the sides.

The dark green parts at the top of the mat are one side of the roof one and is slightly longer than the other roof part which is light green,  the longer one overlaps the shorter one at the top of the roof. the red bits are the decorative parts for the roof

 The pink/beige parts are for the arched opening that you see with the treats insdie. the bit with all the tabs is the top of the arch and the other bit is the sides and bottom in one peice, the other pieces are the decorative pieces

The the dark pink pieces go around the main body of the clock, the clock face and the arch.

The orange pieces at the bottom is the base for the clock to sit on.

and then the clock face itself this needs to be printed then cut out.

So cut all your parts including the decorative parts

Start by gluing the decorative parts to the main parts. so it makes assembly easier.

Glue the clock face in place too. then glue all the sides together in one whole piece. and then glue that to the front of the clock body keping it all lined up, whilst waiting for that to glue together the arch in one whole piece, then attach it to the inside front part of the clock laking sure you keep it lined up.

Now for the back to be glued in place, take care to keep it all lined up to keep it neat. 

Now build your roof pieces and base, they all go together in the same way,

Put the roof on, put the smallest one on first and line it up so it's inline with the back of the clock ans also with the top og the roof, you should only have overhang on the front and at the bottom not the back or the top. then glue the lager piece in place, again lining it up with the back (no overhang) and line it up with the top of the other side of the roof you have just put on. again you should only have overhang at the front and bottom.

Now the base keep it lined up with the back of the clock, so that everything on the back is flush 

Add your decorations hearts etc and you have your cuckoo clock :)

Enjoy!

Dragonfly lantern

Assembly Instructions

Cut all the pieces not forgetting the vellum pieces for the windows

First of all glue the vellum onto the windows (what will be the inside)

The lantern sides and roof are all one piece so you will need to put some folds in to make them all go together neatly.

The fold the first crease line towards you so you're folding the part above the crease towards you, then the next crease fold away from you this is the roof section of this part. fold them all the same. Either glue or tape all the tabs along the side of these pieces. now start attaching each section together, start with the roof, you will see where it folds back in itself there it a tiny tab (you should have glue or tape in this too) make sure this attaches across to the other part neatly, this will give a good neat roof section.  now attach the window sides together, you will already have glue or tape on these tabs. do 3 window sections together, and the other 3 keep the tealight hole in the middle and 2 windows either side of it.

Now you have 2 parts of the lantern, you can now put them together, 

The little flower type piece is for the top if the roof to hide the hole, just fold the 'petals' downwards and then glue it to the top of the lantern.

Now the base can go on, fold the tabs inwards on the bottom of the lantern dab on some glue or tape and place the base on keeping it all inline.

Now add your decorations, the vines and dragonfly, place them anywhere you like :)

Secret Garden Box Card

Assembly Instructions

Purchase this card here

Cut all your parts. I recommend you use white or cream pearlescent (280gsm A4) card to give the effect you see in the image .

All the internal scene layers have tabs, they fold backwards and attach the the sides (inside) the box frame.

Make up the box frame, the largest part is the back sides and front tabs, it's all in one piece. crease each score line all the same way. then the front which is the frame with the fancy leaf pattern will glue onto the tabs on the main box section to give you the main box of the card.

The house layer goes to the back (remember to fold the tabs backwards as these give you the spacing from each of the other layers and also the back of the card)

Glue it in remembering each layer glues in at the bottom, so just check which way your frame is when gluing.

The next layer is the trees and then finally attach the birdhouse to the lonely oblong piece by just gluing it at the base of the bird table you could cut 2 of these and glue together keeping one each side of the oblong layer for stiffness. add the bird to the top of the table.

Now attach the gates to the front. carefully line them up so the meet in the middle, they bow out a little to give an elegant look to the front of the box so just slightly bend them around a bottle to give them a bit of a curve.  They both have a score line so that they can open up to reveal the secret garden. glue each gate to the sides of the frame of the box using the tabs on the outer edge of each gate.

Keep using the image as a reference it helps you understand the building of it a bit more

3D Hanging Chandelier 

Assembly Instructions

Purchase this item here

Cut all 3 pieces

The 2 main chandelier parts slot together, the little oblong tab is to glue over the open section of the piece without the loop to secure the 2 parts together.

So as you look at your chandelier the right way up the oblong tab folds in half and fits over the top of the top as shown in the next 2 images, the image doesn't show that it's folded yours will be folded over the top and glued on both sides to secure it 

This holds it all in place but it will still fold flat for storage

Rock Star

 Assembly Instructions

This design is available Here  at SVG HUT

I have laid the part out to try and make it more easy to see what goes where.

I have colour coded each part that all go together

For example the base drum parts are all red the High hat cymbal is blue and the low cymbal is green etc

Use the image as a reference to assemble as it's very difficult to explain everything.

The drum main part ore the odd shape, then the small ovals go at the bottom which in the image is the black part and the oblong with the curvy bits are the glittery part, cut the main parts our of mirri board so that you have the look of metal once you've put the other bits over that. Take a look and the image and it should make sense, this is more or less the same for all the drums

I have also positioned them on the mat as close to their places as possible. the little t bar piece is to sit on top of the base drum and the 2 side drums attach to the top t section - one each side. with a slight tilt as you see on the mat and in the image

Cut the cymbal stands, microphone and cymbals out of mirri board and also the guitar this give the metal effect that makes this card stand out.

The microphone and guitar attach to the oblong layer with the 2 lumps on them and the drum kit attaches to the plain oblong layer

Gypsy Caravan 

Assembly Instructions

Here's what you have on your mat

I have labelled them in this image to help you see what part is what.

Cut all your components including the decorative paper parts also cut 16 wheels

First of all glue 4 wheels together stacking them like this will give you stability. 1 single layer of card for the wheels is too flimsy.

Let them dry.

Build the base section
The orange parts
It's an oblong box for the caravan shell to sit onto.
Glue all your decorative panels to your main parts
Now build the caravan
The brown parts
2 sides a front (with door hole and back)

The roof
You should have glued the decorative panel on to this. 
Give it a curve before attaching it to the caravan
, once you've curved it it will be easier to glue it in place to the main caravan. 
It glues to the 2 sides sections using the glue tabs
It has a little over hang at the back and more at the front, check the images to see for positioning

Glue on your window frames, shutters and split door.

Also glue the decorative corner panels to the front and back of the caravan and now glue the caravan to the base, lining the back of the decorative panels up with the back of the base.

Now to build the stairs
Each step slots through the side of the stairs fold the glue tab down and glue in place, do this with all 4 steps and both sides, now you can glue it to the front of the base of the caravan using the glue tabs at the top

Time to add the wheels..

You need to make sure you get them all level. and also the need to be the right height for the steps to touch the floor or just off the floor.
 Glue all 4 wheel in place and that's your caravan finished. Add any other decoration or embellishments to add you own personal touch :)

 

Wine Glass lampshades

Assembly instructions

There are 2 parts to most of the wine glass lampshades, the bottom layer is the layer without any design, and the top layer is the one with the cut our design

On the edge of the bottom layer put a strip of double sided tape and then fold the other edge around to stick it together giving you the basic shade. then do the same with the top layer. You can either glue the 2 shades together or leave them lose. I left all mine lose so that I could change them around for different colour bases.

The glass they are on the rim measures 3"

The height of the shades measure 4"

Only use battery powered tea lights

All the lampshade are available HERE

Santa Cutlery Holder

Assembly Instructions

You have 4 components 

the main holder

white trim

belt

buckle

Cut out all your parts

On the main holder put all your folds in ready so that it's easier for when gluing. The tab glues to the other side to make a closed box and the bottom 2 curved flaps fold up to close the bottom of the holder, you can glue this if you want but it does stay closed on it;s own. 

Now glue the white trim into place, you can see the collar goes to the front of the holder and folds around the back, the front of the holder scoops downwards, you will see this on the pictures. 

thread the buckle onto the belt and glue the belt in place, just make sure you end up with the buckle on the front of the holder ;)

Aren't they just the cutest thing to have on the dining table?

  Sleigh assembly instructions

I would recommend using very tacky double sided tape for sticking the sides to the main section, it can get a bit messy with glue.

So stick one of the sides to the main section starting from the back of the sleigh, taking care to keep the curves neat. Then attach the other side

 

Now glue on the decoration on the top edge of the sleigh

For the runners I actually cut 4 and glued 2 together for strength 

Attach the runners along the bottom lining them up with the bottom of the sleigh

Make sure you keep the runners level otherwise you'll have a rocking sleigh lol
