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.

Making felt flowers

Felt flower series ☺️ Pipe cleaners are pretty handy too 👍#tiktok classroom#StayHomeTimeLife with childrenwork

Why not try making flowers that never wilt using felt and pipe cleaners? It’s very easy and cute.

First, cut petals out of felt.

Slightly fold the base of each petal and snip along the crease—this is where you’ll thread the pipe cleaner later.

Cut a light green pipe cleaner into three 4 cm pieces.

Lay two pieces in an X shape, then place the third straight across and twist to form the stamen.

Wrap a green pipe cleaner around to make the stem, and wrap a yellow pipe cleaner around the tip of the stamen to represent the pollen.

Finally, thread the petals onto the stem and glue them in place to finish.

Try making your favorite flowers!

whipped resin

We’ll show you how to make whipped resin that feels just like making sweets.

First, let’s create the base with resin.

Pour resin into a mold and cure it.

You can make the color however you like.

Once the base is ready, add the deco “whip,” then place decorative parts on top to embellish it.

When the whip hardens, it’s done! Using store-bought decorative parts is easy, but if you’d like to try making more with resin, take this opportunity to handcraft the parts as well.

Handmade croissant craft

Pretty hard to do in real life, huh? 🥹#ElementarySchoolMomSummer Vacation CraftParentingChildcareHandmade#100-yen shop DIY#100-yen-shop

♬ Touch – KATSEYE

Croissants, whose toasty aroma practically comes through just by looking at them, are a popular bread across generations.

Let’s recreate that delicious croissant appearance using materials you can get at a 100-yen shop.

For the base, cut a puzzle mat into three different sizes, then glue them together while creating steps.

Once the base is complete, apply double-sided tape across the entire surface and wrap brown yarn around it to mimic the look of a croissant.

Since the layered dough and variations in browning are part of a croissant’s appeal, experiment with how you wrap the yarn and also use paint to reproduce these details effectively.

Iced Deco Cup

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

Original song – Mugi Mama DIY 🧵🪡 – Mugi Mama DIY 🧵🪡

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.

Original watch

Why not try making a one-of-a-kind original clock using a DIY clock kit? First, draw diagonal lines on a canvas board and drill a hole where the lines intersect to attach the movement.

Sketch a few ideas, then paint your design with acrylic gouache based on those sketches.

To make the numbers stand out, you can create them with paper clay.

If you prepare a template that divides a circle into 12 equal parts, it will be easier to decide the placement of the numbers.

Once you finish painting, attach the movement through the hole you prepared in advance.

These DIY basket bag ideas are perfect if you can’t find a design you like or don’t want to have the same bag as everyone else.

The time you spend creating while thinking about colors and designs can become a fulfilling hobby.

You’ll need items like craft bands.

Adjust the size and length to match the dimensions you want to make.

It’s also lovely to give one as a gift to close friends or family.

Flower papercut

[For Teachers] Kirie: "What kind of flowers will we make?" – Elementary School Art Support
Flower papercut

Kirie—the art of creating beautiful patterns simply by folding and cutting origami—is a craft filled with surprise and discovery.

Fold the origami paper several times until it becomes a triangle.

Draw motifs like snowflakes or hearts, then cut them out with scissors.

The moment you unfold the paper and a completely unexpected pattern spreads out is pure excitement.

Depending on how you sketch the design and where you cut, you can create completely different works even with the same theme.

Choosing colored origami paper or adding glitter for the finishing touch makes the result more vibrant and striking.

Through the process, you can develop dexterity and a sense of design, and once displayed, the pieces brighten up any room.
