Tower + Tower = CASTLE

045.JPG

This craft is made from paper milk cartons. Surely such material is available. You don't need to buy it in the store on purpose. If you wish, you can accumulate it as much as you like. Milk cartons are easy to store and do not take up much space when folded. This material is very durable and can even be washed.
The presented craft is made according to the scheme of a collapsible cube (see "Collapsible cube"). This is a natural development of such technology.

The craft consists of two types of towers: tall and low. A tall tower can have a gate or stand in a corner (they are slightly different). The low towers are all the same. The simplest castle of these towers is shown here. Of course, you can come up with your own.

Supplies

Liter packs with a cross section of 7x7 cm

No glue is used when making

Wash and dry the packs. Cut off the bottom (it is not needed in the future). The rest can be easily stored folded.

The low tower is made in the same way as the tall tower. You need to make sure that the gate is in the right places.

All towers are assembled! You can make a castle.

The castle can be disassembled when the game is finally over. And you can hide it until next time.
