DIY stands you can make at home using cardboard

It’s a surprise that I’m posting another post for this week. It’s been a while since I did, but it’s time to go again and share more content with you guys. Since each week, I post about a topic and I posted this week about a DIY project. You can read my latest and new DIY phone stand. Mentioning the word “Stand”, in the second post of this week I want to write a recap post of some of the awesome DIY crafty stands I made before. So these are DIY stands you can make at home using cardboard.

It’s been a while since I did a DIY craft recap post. Being busy with all of what happened and overwhelmed with everything. I decided to let go of some things until I manage to get hold of everything. So now that I’m starting to manage to do that. It’s time to add one post back haha. If you remember, I used to post three a week. However, I will get back to that slowly.

Anyway, for this post, I did tons of stands and wrote blog posts about it. I thought it would be a perfect idea to make a list of them as DIY stands you can make at home. Very useful and save you tons of money instead of buying them from the store, you know.

DIY stands you can make at home using cardboard

Let me tell you more about these stands before I show you and share pictures of them. And mention important details about it. It will help you to get good insight, and if you decide to make any of these DIY stands, you can make them at home. You already have enough details about them. I’m going to leave links to each tutorial as well.

Well, let’s start with what these stands are made of. You can already tell by the title. They are all made out of paper and cardboard. If you know me, I always make all my projects using cardboard. Materials can be found at home and can be used in a good and helpful way haha. I’ve also made decorations using these two.

Type of stands:

• Glue gun stand
• Headphone stand
• Phone stand with charging feature
• Phone stand with no charging feature

Here is what you will expect on this list of the DIY stands you can make at home. And if you want to craft one for yourself. There will be links to tutorials to help you more about what materials and tools you will need.

Just like any other materials and stands you buy from the store, you need to be careful with them otherwise, they will be destroyed or broken. As long as you do that, they will be good at serving you for at least a year or so if you are careful with them.

I shared a tutorial on how to make all the DIY stands you can make at home and more pictures of them. If you like one, you can head to the tutorial to see them. These are also easy to do, which is something cool for people who don’t want to spend lots of time on a project.

There are different types of stands for different things. For now, I’m going to share stands for a phone, headset, and glue gun. The glue gun I use for all my projects haha. I decided to make a stand for it and did pretty good on it. Holding the glue sticks and everything.

How long it takes to finish these DIY stands?

Well, I would say it depends on how well you are doing. But, if you don’t have mistakes. It will take u around 6 hours. For me, I wanted to take my time crafting these DIY stands. So, It took me almost a day I think in total.

DIY stands you can make at home sometimes can take more than one day. If you are busy with other things and life in general. And I would say just enjoy the process and you can either finish it quick or let it take its time.

1-The custom Eagle holder for DIY lovers

I’m going to start the list of my most creative DIY stands you can make at home. The eagle glue gun stand and the name were random. It’s just something I thought of doing randomly, adding a printed logo or something. The only thing. Then, the first that came to my mind at that time was the eagle, which sounds cool.

I put a place for the glue stick as well, which helped me a lot. Because It looks messy without it and doesn’t know where I would put it if I don’t have it now haha. Well, before I would put it in my drawer or somewhere safe, I can reach quickly for it. But, now it looks more organized with this DIY stand.

Something you need to know, you can put it on the stand right after you finish using it. But, it will be dripping glue since it is still hot. I recommend taking off the glue stick if you going to do that. Or you can wait until it’s a little colder and then you can put it.

I inspired this idea. Because I was struggling to place my glue gun when I finish or when I didn’t craft anything. And it was the best one because it helped me to keep it organized. And easy to reach for it and put it back.

DIY stands you can make at home like this can take little time than usual. I had a few mistakes when I was crafting this. but after all, it was worth it. You won’t ever have to worry about putting the glue gun in your drawer or somewhere you lose it.

This is something that can be broken easily if kids played with it. Therefore, you need to make sure it’s out of kids’ reach.

There is transparent plastic, and that is something new to me. It’s a new idea that I thought wanted to try and you can know how I did on the tutorial.

2-How to make an awesome custom headset stand

The second in DIY stands you can make at home is going to be my second favorite stand I’ve made so far. This is one in two, which can be what you already know, a headset stand. However, this also works as a decoration on your desk. And that’s what I like about it. Well, stands can be a decoration too, but this one has a new style.

This stand works best with Bluetooth headsets, but you can also put cable headsets as well. I thought it would be a new way to make the two holding the headset from the back, which, as you can see, the stars. However, it can be a little tricky how you can place it properly without destroying it haha. It’s an awesome stand, and that is why I included it in the DIY stands you can make at home!

Also, I like the white and blue colors. It looks so good combined and with the star. It made it look even better. Just you need to put and take the headset carefully.

There are other different ways to craft a DIY headset stand. You can browse the blog for more if you want to get a different way. And each DIY stands idea. I try a new way and do a new design. Because I wanted to test how well I craft.

DIY stands you can make at home like this. I enjoy crafting them. It helps me to get creative. And they can be on our desk as a decoration and also help us to put the headset on it. And it doesn’t take so much time for us to craft.

3-How to make a cool DIY phone stand at home

Coming next, on the list of the DIY stands you can make at home. It’s another design for a phone stand, something cool and can be very handy for people doing work on their PC and phone. Having the phone lying down on the desk is not healthy for the neck. And it will be a struggle to work on both.

I’m one of those people who works on both. And that’s why I decided to make my first DIY phone stand. And then, started making different designs and ways to improve my skills of making DIY stands you can make at home. What you see is one of the designs I recently made.

Just like any other stand or product, as long as you are using it carefully without being aggressive. It will be for the long run. I wrote a full tutorial on how to make it and more pictures if you are interested in reading more about it. All the DIY stands you can make at home on this list have a full tutorial.

These DIY stands you can make at home only made using cardboard. And this phone stand is strong enough to be your phone for a long time. Just don’t keep it within kids’ reach or destroy it in one way or another.

This DIY craft doesn’t take so much time. Therefore, it’s good for people who don’t like to spend a lot of time crafting. Because it gets frustrating. And I have crafted a long DIY project, and it’s not fun sometimes. But we need to enjoy the process.

No specific occasion for this but to just upgrade my old phone stand. Check my previous post on the blog. When did my first ever phone stand? I think it was my first attempt to start crafting DIY stands you can make at home.

4-The Custom and easy DIY phone stand for Christmas

The last one on the DIY stands you can make a home list is something I made last Christmas. This is another phone stand, but this time is different. This time you can work or use your phone on the stand even while charging your phone. Something I wished I have before but now that I have it, I’m happy haha.

It’s a phone stand with a charger feature. This means, don’t need to take off the phone when you want to charge it. So, you can still use it and charge at the same time. Something cool about these DIY stands you can make at home. I can add any feature we want.

The design was meant to be simple. Because at that time I was just testing my abilities on how well I can craft something for such an occasion. And I found it pretty easy and could’ve done even more. But, I will leave them for the next DIY phone upgrade.

Even though it’s not Christmas anymore, it can add little Christmas vibes haha. For this one, you will need also to glue the sides and back really well. Otherwise, it would fall after a couple of days. Because they only depend on the glue and how much you put.
