Sparkling hourglass

[Easy Craft 🍉] How to Make a Sparkling Hourglass ❣️
Sparkling hourglass

Let’s make a cute, sparkly hourglass that doubles as interior decor.

Prepare two small bottles, glitter to use as sand, a clear plastic file sheet, and decorative parts.

Cut the clear file slightly larger than the bottle opening and make a hole in the center for the glitter to pass through.

Attach tape and half-cover the hole, then glue it to the bottle.

Add the glitter and glue on the other bottle.

Finish it off cutely with decorative parts.

After adding the glitter, be careful not to turn it over until the adhesive has dried.

lampshade

I tried making a lampshade! Perfect for a summer vacation project—my child and I had fun making it together 😊

Here’s a lampshade idea that also works as room decor.

Brush glue mixed with water onto an inflated balloon, then stick on small torn pieces of washi paper.

For sturdiness, layer the washi several times until the balloon’s color isn’t very visible.

Be sure to leave an opening where the light will go.

Since washi is white, use tissue paper if you want to add color.

Once it’s completely dry, pop the balloon and remove it, then secure a wire along the inside edge of the opening for the light to finish it off.

Experimenting with resin?!

Experimenting with resin?!

If you want to try your hand at making things with resin, why not purchase a resin craft kit? It comes with all the basic materials and tools, so you can start creating right away.

Deciding what shape to make and which parts to decorate with—and bringing your ideas to life—is a lot of fun.

While resin is often used for crafts, you can also do experiments, such as comparing how quickly different resin liquids cure! If it’s your first time, please work together with a parent or guardian.

Gem-like soap

Summer Independent Research: How to Make Gemstone-Like Soaps [Recommended for Girls] [Research]
Gem-like soap

Gemstone soaps are available as DIY kits, but they’re easy to make as long as you have glycerin soap and coloring.

Cut the glycerin soap into small pieces and place them in a container, then heat in a microwave at 500W for 10 seconds.

Mix in your favorite colorant to add color, and add aroma for fragrance.

Once you’ve made a few colors, pour them into another container in layers and let them set—that’s it! Try changing the color combinations and see what kinds of gemstones you can create.

Using a clear soap base also gives a light, airy look and is highly recommended.

♬ Utopia – imase

Let’s customize some 100-yen shop items to make a cream soda stand.

For the base, use a flower vase.

Since the top is rounded, apply white masking tape there to represent the ice cream.

For the soda part, attach green iridescent origami paper and add round stickers to mimic bubbles.

Thread a craft pipe through a pom-pom to make a cherry, and stick it onto the base to finish.

You can use it to hold pens or clip memos.
