This paper craft is really very fun.
How to make a house roof out of paper.
Glue the leaves along the bottom overlapping the sides as much as you want.
Then unroll the felt and straighten out the row before you add more staples.
Next use a pencil to mark where the toothpick will go centered below the circular opening on the front.
Start by glueing the accent pieces if you have any and then the center piece.
Start on the next layer overlapping the leaves.
Tape to the cardboard roof.
As a general rule of thumb roofing a house involves more than just adding exterior shingles.
To start each course drive a dozen staples grouped close together.
Roofing a house can easily become a full weekend diy project especially if you are looking to install a roof on a house that is non traditional in size or style.
Roofing felt prevents the deck from being exposed to the elements before or while the shingles are being applied.
Cut your cardboard in the shape and size you need for the roof of your little house.
Let the tips of the leaves extend over the edge a little.
To make this paper house you need 3 sheets of a4.
Next fold it in half from the top edge to the bottom edge.
Crease it and unfold it.
Begin your first row of tar paper with the bottom of the tar paper slightly hanging over the edge of the roof.
Put glue on each of the tabs and assemble the house.
Cover the roof above the underlayment with roofing felt paper.
The main purpose of the underlayment is waterproofing.
Cut it to fit your roof if.
Crease and unfold it.
Roll out the tar paper along the bottom edge of the roof.
Beginning at the bottom where you started with the sheathing roll the underlayment out flat going lengthwise across the sheathing.
Just like you apply shingles on a real house apply the paper leaves starting at the bottom of the roof of your diy fairy house.
It is a very easy and quick way to make a paper house.
Then fold the top edge down to line up with the horizontal crease and repeat with the bottom edge.
Tear off a section of tape large enough to cover the entire roof and fold over on the edges of your roof.
The most common underlayment is roofing felt which is similar to tar paper but felt uses asphalt instead of tar.
Cut out the cardboard for the roof.
Next carefully make a hole with the toothpick.
