I did this a while back for another site, figured i would post it here as well.




Materials

Skinny sticks (popsicle sticks)

Hot melt glue gun

Paint



1st step will be marking our lenghts. take 2 sticks and mark at 2 1/2â€￾ and at 4â€￾. now mark on one side dots at 2/16â€￾ after each line. connect on an angle. cut all angle lines on both sticks. Mark and cut another stick at 1 inch intervals. will need two more additional 1â€￾ from another stick.


Next step you need to glue the 2 1/2â€￾ sticks and the 1 1/2â€￾ sticks in an x formation. make sure you glue them opposite of each other.


We now need to connect the two sides. I glued a 1â€￾ crossbar under the x and at the very top of chairback. see pic


Now we need to glue our four 1â€￾ sticks together with a 5th 1â€￾ across them too hold them(center it). see pic. That will be our seat. Add as many more cross bars across the chair back as you see fit for style. I used only one more.

All that is needed now is to glue the seat on and paint.



hope this helps someone
