Very similar to the Fairy Twig Chair. So, if you have already created the chairs, this will be pretty easy to do.
Items Needed:
Twigs
Hand Pruner
Hot Glue Gun w/ Glue Sticks
Fabric or Felt (optional)
Cut 8 long sticks to the size of the back of the sofa; 2 are for leg & back off sofa, the rest are for the length of the sofa & support for legs.
Cut 14 sticks 1/2 the size of the long sticks. These will be for your front legs, sides for width, support for sofa & across the bench for seating.
Glue 2 of the long pieces to the front legs. Glue 3 more of the long pieces to the back legs.
On the back, glue the sides onto the back, these are at the bottom & middle. I did this on both sides, it makes it easier in the end. (or it did for me, seeing I made 2 of these sofa. These directions are from the 2nd sofa, which I made quicker & easier than the 1st ) I used a close pin to hold this to the edge of the table, if you can do this, you will find you need less hands at this time
.
Once this is set, you can glue on the front of the sofa. Glue on one side at a time.
Glue the set support across the seat. This way if anything is sit on the sofa, you will have support & it won’t pull fabric off (if you decide to use fabric to cover seat area) Cut & glue on your seat covering, if desired.
Turn the sofa so the back is upright, and glue on the back.
Complete. Decorate as desired, or just leave as is. They are ready for when you create your Fairy Garden.
