stained glass wind chime
Sunlight enhances their beauty! Let me introduce an idea for stained-glass-style wind chimes.
On hot summer days, just having a wind chime with a cool, refreshing look can make you feel breezy.
This time, let’s make a stained-glass wind chime using transparent origami paper.
You’ll need transparent origami paper, a plastic cup, an empty capsule, double-sided tape, an awl, string, and so on.
Cutting the transparent origami into your favorite shapes and sticking them on to create a design is a process you can enjoy together with children.
Umbrella sun catcher
Let me introduce a soothing umbrella sun catcher that even adults will want to make.
Gather aurora cut cloth, a plush stand, needle-nose pliers, beads, glue, and double-sided tape, then let’s get started.
Draw eight circles on the aurora cut cloth and cut them out.
Fold each circle in half twice and secure it with double-sided tape.
Make the remaining circle pieces the same way.
Use double-sided tape to attach all eight pieces together to form an umbrella shape.
Thread beads onto a plush stand that has been cut in half using needle-nose pliers, then attach it to the center of the umbrella as the handle—and you’re done.
3 simple coasters
How about making coasters as a summer vacation craft? Here, we’ll introduce three methods.
The first is a coaster made by arranging tiles on top of paper clay.
The second is a coaster made by lining up beads and melting them in the microwave.
The third is a summery coaster that expresses a seasonal scene by placing shells, sequins, and stickers in resin.
They’re all easy to make, so give them a try.
You can buy most of the materials at 100-yen shops.

Mordor
This guide shows you how to make soft, cute dolls using pipe cleaners with fluffy fibers attached.
Even though they’re fuzzy, the core is still a pipe cleaner, so you can freely change the shape by bending and twisting to add curves.
Once you shape it like a framework, combine other pipe cleaners there to complete the overall base.
While deciding what pose the doll will take, adjust the angles, then assemble the small parts to create its expression as well.
