Glue the panels together to form the box.

Line up and glue craft sticks, then paint over them.

Adding a nameplate will enhance the stylish look.

Prepare your favorite paint colors and think about the atmosphere you want to create based on where you’ll use it.

You can also adjust the size by changing the dimensions of the panels to fit your space perfectly.

Get a wooden box, a cutting board, a round dowel, a hot glue gun, and a saw, and let’s get started.

Cut the round dowel to the appropriate length, sand the ends smooth, thread it through the holes, and secure it with the hot glue gun.

It’s also recommended to paint it to add a personal touch.

Hemp twine lampshade

How to make a jute twine lampshade
Hemp twine lampshade

Lampshades made with jute twine look cool and very charming when displayed in a room, don’t they? The truth is, you can make one easily by hand.

Inflate a 6-inch balloon to the size you want for the lampshade and secure it, then brush on glue thinned with water.

Just like making papier-mâché, wrap the balloon with jute twine in your favorite color.

Use a brush to soak the twine with the adhesive as you go, wrapping it so it doesn’t unravel.

Once you’ve finished wrapping and the whole thing is completely dry, pop the balloon inside.

Cut out the opening for the light, remove any balloon pieces stuck to the twine, and you’re done.

Sofa-shaped accessory case

[No-Sew Remake] Turn an empty tissue box into a cute sofa-shaped accessory case ♪ Perfect for your fave plushie! How to make a sofa out of a tissue box
Sofa-shaped accessory case

Let’s use tissue boxes to make a lovely sofa-shaped organizer you can place in your room.

Prepare two tissue boxes.

Cut and fold one box to create the base of the sofa.

Use the other box to make the sofa’s backrest and armrests.

Attach your favorite fabric to the sides of the tissue boxes.

For the parts where you add stuffing, cover them by making the fabric like a pouch.

Since you’ll use double-sided fabric tape, there’s no sewing required.

Once it’s finished, try placing a plush toy on it or decorating it with accessories.

Putting sandwiches in a hand-woven basket and heading out—it’s the kind of scene you might find in Anne of Green Gables, isn’t it? Baskets still feel a bit unfamiliar to many in Japan, but why not try making one out of tissue boxes? A single box is too small, so let’s combine four tissue boxes.

Put the four together to make one large box, and use the leftover paper to add a handle—that’s the basic idea.

Then decorate it however you like with lace or fabric scraps.

It could be great for a summer vacation project, too!

Shuwa-shuwa Honey Lemon 350ml – Sharou

Many girls probably love wands, don’t they? You often see them in anime with magical-girl themes.

This time, I’ll introduce an idea for making a simple wand.

Thread ten 2 cm pieces of straw and five beads alternately onto a 30 cm chenille stem (pipe cleaner), then shape it into a star.

Twist the two ends of the stem together to secure it, trim any excess, then take a 15 cm chenille stem folded in half, hook it onto the star, and twist it into a single rod.

Slide on a straw and glue it in place to finish.

It might also look cute decorated with washi tape, etc.
