gel candle

Easy gel candles you can make with 100-yen shop items!

Here’s a handmade gel candle idea that creates a soothing atmosphere.

You’ll need a candle container, gel wax, and a candle wick.

After thoroughly removing any dust from the container, warm the gel and pour it in.

Place the wick in the center.

Since it may topple over if left as is, secure it upright by clamping it with something like chopsticks laid across the top.

Once the gel sets, your candle is complete.

Tie some jute twine around the container or decorate it with your favorite embellishments—it could make a lovely gift for a friend!

Felt bookmark

Simple and cute! How to make a teacup bookmark [small felt crafts] – DIY Felt Tea Cup Bookmark

If you enjoy reading, why not try making a felt bookmark? All you need to do is cut the felt according to a template to make the parts and then attach them with glue, so it’s an idea even those who aren’t confident with sewing can try.

First, think about what motif you’d like to use.

Book, mug, or leaf shapes are all cute.

The ribbon serves as the bookmark, and you’ll attach motifs to both ends, so please prepare two felt motifs.

You can also buy felt at 100-yen shops.

paper lampshade

[Paper Lampshade] Let's try it together at home: 'A Cute, Round Lampshade'

Here’s a handmade paper lampshade idea that also works as interior decor.

This version uses papier-mâché, so prepare a balloon for the base and some shoji paper.

First, inflate the balloon to a suitable size, tie the end, and secure it on a stand.

Brush diluted glue onto the balloon and apply pieces of shoji paper that you’ve torn into small bits.

Be sure to leave the top part of the balloon uncovered.

If you want some color, mix in flower paper or similar.

Once the glue dries, pop the balloon and remove it, trim the opening at the top, and place the shade over your lamp to finish.

The amount of shoji paper you layer will change how the light diffuses, so adjust to your liking.

Patchwork scrap accessory pouch

How to make a gusseted accessory pouch from fabric scraps: create gussets easily with no cutting — How to make an accessory case

If you sew, you probably have lots of fabric scraps piling up at home.

In that case, why not make this little storage tray? It has folded gussets, so when you’re not using it as a small organizer, you can fold it flat for storage.

All you need are two fabric scraps measuring 16 cm by 20 cm.

If you want it to be a bit sturdier, apply fusible interfacing.

Sew the two scraps right sides together, fold the fabric to form the gussets, and sew both ends.

Turn it right side out through the opening, topstitch along the upper edge, and you’re done.
