There are all kinds of resin craft pieces, aren’t there? Earrings, keychains, and hair ties, perhaps? Hair clips made with your favorite resin mold are lovely too.

Adding components like beads, dried flowers, or gold foil makes the finish even more beautiful.

Coloring them to match the season is also a great idea.

These days, many resin craft supplies are sold even at 100-yen shops in the craft section.

If you’re thinking, “I want to try making something with resin, but since it’s my first time I don’t want to spend much,” you can start casually without a big budget.

Flower Keychain

Let’s try making keychains using colorful glue sticks.

Glue sticks are used with a glue gun, a tool that bonds with heat, and they come in a variety of colors.

Cut the glue sticks into short pieces and place them into a mold.

If you add glitter to the mold as well, you’ll get a sparkly keychain.

After heating in a toaster oven or regular oven, remove them from the mold once they’ve hardened.

Trim any excess that sticks out with scissors, attach the keychain hardware, and you’re done.

Depending on the mold, you can make many at once, so they could make great gifts for friends.

When people hear “beaded accessories,” they often think of children’s toys, but with the right materials and design, you can create pieces perfect for adults! The basic method is simply threading beads onto fishing line (nylon thread), so feel free to make your favorite design.

Keeping the colors subdued and using tiny beads to add delicacy may be the key to giving beaded accessories a sophisticated, grown-up look.

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.

Flower fidget spinner

♬ Relaxing cute everyday BGM – Hiraoka

How about making your own hand spinner that twirls between your fingers or on a desk, finished in a cute flower shape? Use two circles cut from cardboard for the finger pads, connect them with a toothpick to form the axle, and attach the spinning flower piece between them, leaving a slight gap as you assemble the axle.

The way it spins will change depending on the gap between your fingers and the rotating part, as well as the size of the hole the toothpick passes through, so try building it while experimenting with ways to make it spin longer.

Let’s make a hand-spun top that you spin vigorously with your hand, designed with a cute, flower-inspired look.

We’ll use a disposable chopstick as the top’s axle, and wrap long, folded strips of paper around it to form the shape of the top.

Everyone should clearly imagine their favorite flower and think about which colors of paper will best match that flower.

Wrapping the paper tightly is the key to making the whole piece sturdy and ensuring it spins well.

An hourglass made of straws

Summer vacation craft 🌻 It's fun—when you flip it over like an hourglass, the straws flow down! ⌛️#Summer VacationSummer Vacation Craft#AtHomePlay#HandmadeToysworkEducational toy#craft

♬ Another Day of Sun from La La Land [ORIGINAL COVER] – SoundWorks

Let’s make a toy where short straws fall like an hourglass.

First, cut a wire to 40 cm and wrap it around a pencil to make a spring.

Prepare two small paper cups and make a hole in the center of each bottom; thread one cup onto one end of the spring and secure it.

Stretch the spring and thread short, cut pieces of straw onto it.

Then thread and secure the other paper cup on the opposite end.

To prevent the spring from expanding and contracting, bridge two chopsticks between the two cups and glue them in place, and you’re done! Decorate the paper cups and chopsticks with masking tape or stickers to make it cute.
