hanger rack

[100-Yen DIY] You can make it using only 100-yen store items! A space-saving storage hanger rack!

Here’s an idea for a hanger rack you can make with a simple process.

We’ll break it into two steps.

First, use zip ties to fasten together items called wire lattice slim, which are like wire mesh panels, and set a slatted board (sunoko) so it fits into the mesh.

Imagine the wire mesh as the sides and the slatted board as the back.

Next, set another slatted board at the bottom, stand it upright, and you’re done.

The size is neither too big nor too small—just right.

It looks like something you can place in a small space and put to good use.

Tealight lamp shade

One Sheet of Origami! How to Make a Lampshade for a Tealight (LED) – Tealight (LED) Lampshade with Just One Sheet of Origami!

Make it with a single sheet of origami! Here’s an idea for a lampshade for tea lights.

This lampshade is used for candles placed in small cups.

This time, let’s try making a lampshade out of origami for use with string lights.

What you’ll need: one sheet of origami paper, a ruler, a craft knife, and string lights.

Choose a translucent origami paper so the light softly shines through for a soothing effect.

It’s also lovely to spend time finding a design that matches your taste or interior décor.

An Unfading Carnation

How about an everlasting carnation for Mother’s Day? #100yenShop #Handmade #100YenDIY #Daiso #Seria

Here’s an idea for a Mother’s Day gift: carnations that never wilt.

You’ll need a paper cup, tissues, air-dry clay, tissue paper (for flowers), and cotton swabs.

First, crumple a few tissues and place them in the paper cup to raise the bottom.

Next, roll the air-dry clay into a ball and press it into the cup so it mounds slightly above the rim.

Finally, cut the tissue paper into 3 cm squares and use the cotton swabs to press the pieces into the clay—that’s it! The softly crinkled tissue looks adorable, just like real carnations.

The final step of inserting the tissue is fun to the touch, so be sure to try it.

Botanical candle

[100-Yen DIY] How to Make a Botanical Candle (with Detailed Explanation) / Making a Botanical Candle

Botanical candles are very popular as interior decor.

Let’s try making one using items sold at 100-yen shops.

Break a stick candle into about half and put it into the container that originally held cotton swabs, then place the rest of the candle in a pot and heat to melt.

Pour the melted wax into the cotton swab container, insert a wick, and let it set.

Next, place the hardened wax in the center of a larger cotton swab container than the one you prepared first, and add dried flowers around it.

You don’t need many flowers, but be careful not to add too many or the wax won’t be able to penetrate.

Pour in the melted wax, and once it has completely cooled and solidified, it’s done.

It’s a piece that’s sure to delight whether you make it for yourself or as a gift.

Iced Deco Cup

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.

Remaking a 100-yen shop clock

The part you can see from the back of a table clock or wall clock—the section with the battery compartment and the knob for setting the time—is called the movement.

You could say it’s the heart of the clock.

In fact, clock movements are sold on their own at 100-yen shops and home improvement stores, and you can use them to make your own original clock! If you’re good at woodworking, try starting from scratch by buying a wooden board and cutting a groove to fit the movement.

If that’s not your strong suit, there are also assembly kits with pre-cut grooves available, so you can use those instead.

Miniature house

Make a miniature loft

Miniature house making is also recommended for those who enjoy detailed work.

This involves combining small pieces of wood, fabric, and other materials to create a lifelike little home.

Because it requires delicate handling, having tweezers on hand will help the process go smoothly.

I hope you’ll enjoy not only the crafting but also the time spent imagining what kind of house to make.

Once it’s finished, arranging figurines inside and taking photos is part of the fun.

Give it a try!
