Put yourself in the shoes of a real architect and create your very own city out of cardboard!

In this guided collection, young crafters and artists will find step-by-step instructions and full-color photographs that will aid them in creating a whole city (people and vehicles included!) out of cardboard.

Author and artist Tiffanie Pichon opens with encouraging words that will inspire crafters to pay closer attention to their surroundings as they move through their city or town. The architecture-from roof to window-the sidewalks, parks, and even the jobs people are doing while they walk or drive through a city may inspire their creations as they construct their very own city out of recycled materials, like cardboard.

The projects featured throughout this fully illustrated book will come together to create a neighborhood, but may also inspire future projects such as DIY rural towns and farms. Types of creations include houses and stores, towers and skyscrapers, factories, people and animals, vehicles, mountains, trees, benches, and more-all requiring the most basic supplies (tape or glue, scissors, paints or markers, rulers, colored paper, egg cartons, etc.) and whatever recycled or natural materials the crafter wants to use!
