Rice made from yarn
@n.annlee321 What kind of rice do you like? 🙂#tiktok classroomLife with children#HandmadeToys#AtHomePlay
Good music – neguse.
Let’s make a rice mascot that conveys warmth by making the most of yarn’s soft look.
The steps are to bundle yarn wound around a fork and then cut it; the key is shaping it so it ends up looking like rice.
Place it in a bowl or lunchbox-style container you made separately, and aim for an even more appetizing look with additional decorations.
Plain white rice can look too simple, so try mixing in other colors as you wind the yarn, or add side dishes you’ve crafted separately—both are great options.
Iced Deco Cup
@mugimama_diy I tried decorating it with those ice-like things you always see at the dollar store ✨ What do you think? Looks cool and cute, right? 💓Summer Vacation CraftDeco video#simpleDIY

Let’s make an “icy deco cup” using interior stones and a cup sold at 100-yen shops.
All you need is your favorite cup, interior stones, a hot glue gun, and any decorative parts you like.
It’s really simple to make—just use the glue gun to attach the interior stones and parts to the cup! If you choose clear, colorless parts to match the interior stones, the whole thing will look like an ice glass.
You can use store-bought parts, or if you’re good with resin, you can make your own.
Easy Ice Bazooka
@picoton_craft A bazooka you can make with a balloon and a paper cup ✨✨ The “Takoyaki Bazooka” I made before was really popular, so I made an “ice cream version” 🍨 It’s a blast, so definitely give it a try 💕Life with children #HandmadeToysSimple craft #AtHomePlay

Let’s make an Ice Bazooka that everyone can play with after making it! First, take a sheet of origami cut in half and draw your favorite ice cream on it.
Wrap it around a rolled piece of paper, grip it together, and secure it with tape.
That completes the bazooka ammo.
Next, cut out the bottom of a brown paper cup and draw a cone pattern on it.
Take a balloon with the tip of the part that inflates slightly trimmed, stretch it over the bottom of the paper cup, and tape it in place.
Finally, make a target using a paper cup and construction paper, and you’re done! Pull the balloon to launch your Ice Bazooka and aim for a high score!
Aroma Fragrance
If you’re looking for an easy, summery craft, I recommend making an aroma fragrance jar! Prepare a jar, gel ice packs, blue food coloring, essential oils, and decorations like marbles or seashells.
First, fill the jar about one-third full with the gel from the ice packs and add the food coloring to tint it.
Once the color is set, add more gel and a few drops of your favorite essential oil.
Finally, add the decorations and put the lid on—you’re done! Using blue food coloring with marbles or seashells makes it look like you’ve captured the sea inside the jar.
Try creating one with your favorite theme!
dollhouse
If she loves dolls, why not try making a dollhouse? In this idea, colored boards and photo frames are used to create walls and windows.
Using pins for furniture legs and buttons for handles, you can build a surprisingly charming dollhouse with just items from a 100-yen shop or things you already have at home.
These days, many miniature furnishings are sold at 100-yen shops, so you can also modify and use those.
Go ahead and create your ideal room.
