• Next, we collect the "pattern" of the product.
• On the upper side of the “pattern” we cut corners. The corners will resemble pointed ice floes, as in the fairy tale about the Snow Queen.
• Additionally, you can cut patterns inside the top of the “pattern”.
• We glue all the pieces of cardboard together and put on a chair.
• Next, we decorate the back using white wallpaper, cutting through pre-prepared patterns.
• Glue the back of the product using tape to the chair.
• We decorate the product with tinsel, rain or colored paper. Additionally, you can stick snowflakes or sparkles.

You can also consider another option for decorating, more complex. It will take about three days to make it, but the result itself will exceed all expectations if you do everything according to the instructions. In this example, we use a regular wooden chair without upholstery. Follow these steps:

• We process the chair with medium hard sandpaper.
• Putty holes from screws, if they are visible.
• Primed the surface of the furniture. For simplicity, you can use a diluted solution of PVA glue.
• When the solution has dried, cover the stool with dark brown enamel.
• After the enamel has dried, we rub it with wax.
• Next, cover the surface with two more layers of white enamel.
• We decorate the chair with the help of stencils. You can, for example, use roses or any other flowers. Paint color can also be chosen for every taste. On a white background, absolutely any color looks beautiful.
