Cave Craft Ideas: How to Make a Big Cave for Set Design or Ganpati Decoration - Step-by-Step Tutoria

To start making the cave, you will need the following materials:

Cardboard boxes (preferably larger ones like those used for refrigerators, ACs, and LED TVs)
Scissors or box cutters
Packing tape
Small pieces of cardboard or additional boxes to reinforce joints
Here are the steps to make the cave:

Start by cutting out the cardboard boxes into large pieces. You can use scissors or box cutters to do this.

Arrange the cardboard pieces to create the basic shape of the cave. You can use tape to join the pieces together at the edges.

To reinforce the joints and prevent the cardboard from folding or collapsing, use small pieces of cardboard or additional boxes to create patches at the joints. Attach these patches with tape.

Continue building up the shape of the cave with additional layers of cardboard, using the same technique of joining and reinforcing the pieces as you go.

Once you have the basic shape of the cave, you can start adding details like stalactites and stalagmites, rocks, and other features. You can use smaller pieces of cardboard to create these details and attach them with tape.

Once you're happy with the design of your cave, you can paint it or cover it with fabric or other materials to create the desired effect.

Remember, this is just a small maquette, so if you want to create a life-size working model of the cave, you'll need to follow the same steps using larger boxes and appropriate sizing. Good luck with your set design or Ganpati decoration project!
