I have had my fair share of cardboard now I think because technically cereal boxes are made out of cardboard. I figured that cereal boxes would be easy because I wouldn't have to buy anything and everyone has cereal. I didn't want to break the boxes down, I wanted to keep the box's shape so I tried many different approaches on what to build and finally I decided on this. I hot glued all of the tabs together, I really liked the design that it made so I figured that I would just keep building on it. So I got more boxes and added them in the empty spaces between the others. It made this sort of sun shape or a burst of color if you will. I did flatten out a few boxes to make a back so that the boxes would hold together better because my original plan was to hang it which now I think I should have stuck with that idea. But when I saw that it could stand on its own I didn't want to let that feature go to waste. Then then I trimmed off the extra on the edges and last minute I decided to put the circle in the middle to cover the flaps on the inside. In the end I was satisfied with my work and I haven't eaten cereal in days!
