Let’s reuse empty milk cartons to make a fun rolling tower where a ping-pong ball tumbles down! Cut the milk cartons and connect two of them to create a long cylindrical base.

Make holes and slits in paper plates, attach them in a stepped arrangement, and adjust the angles so the ball rolls smoothly through.

Add slits to the side of the cylinder so the ball won’t stop midway and will drop all the way to the bottom.

If you wrap the whole thing with a tube-shaped cover made from a clear file, the ball won’t fly out and it’s safer to play with.

A bonus is that kids can learn about gravity and incline through the speed of the rolling ball and the fun sounds it makes.

It’s an eco-friendly idea that uses recycled materials to create a moving, interactive project.

A piggy bank that helps you save while having fun

http://www.lemon8-app.com

Let’s use Daiso’s 3-tier drawer case to make a fun, game-like piggy bank over summer break.

First, flip the second and third drawers upside down and reassemble them so the flat sides face the front.

Next, cut corrugated plastic (plastic cardboard) into any shapes you like and attach it to the outside of the drawers to create a design that looks great.

Inside, apply double-sided tape so coins pause partway and drop slowly as they travel down.

With a piggy bank you made yourself, saving money becomes fun and easier to turn into a habit.

It’s a unique, practical idea that can change your everyday life through creativity and ingenuity.

desk lamp

How about this for your summer vacation project?Summer Vacation Craft#Summer VacationDesk lamp

Here’s an idea for making a desk lamp that uses a magnet-mountable LED light.

The stand is entirely wooden, and the arm is movable so you can adjust the angle.

First, think about what size you want and what kind of structure you’re aiming for, and try drawing a design plan.

Once the plan is ready, figure out the lengths and quantities of wood you’ll need and source the materials.

These days, you can even find small pieces of wood at 100-yen shops, so those might work as well.

One of the joys of woodworking is choosing the finish—whether to go for a natural look with varnish or oil, or paint it your favorite color—so definitely consider a variety of options.

Key rack made from 100-yen shop materials

[100-Yen DIY] Easy Craft: Key Rack and Accessory Holder – Summer Vacation DIY

This is a key rack packed with ideas, made using photo frames.

Prepare three identical photo frames: two will form the body and one will be the lid.

Start by making the body.

First, cut a cork sheet to fit the inside dimensions of a photo frame, apply a decorative remake sheet, and attach it to the first frame.

Next, glue the second frame on top of the first.

That completes the body.

Then, use hinges to connect the third frame to the body as a lid.

Finish by attaching an arch latch.

By inserting aluminum pins into the cork sheet, you can hang your keys on them.

It’s a creative project that turns photo frames into a key rack.

Try painting it or adding your own touches to make it uniquely yours.
