Star Tanabata Decorations

How to Make a Wobbly Origami Star Tanabata Decoration – DIY Paper Tanabata Decorations (for the Star Festival) / Tutorial

Here’s a cute star ornament idea decorated with beads.

Instead of origami paper, you’ll use square memo sheets to make it.

Since memo sheets are the same color on both sides, it helps hide imperfections.

First, fold the memo sheet five times to create the specified shape, trim off the excess, and turn it into a hexagon.

From there, make the creases and form the star parts.

The steps are simple, but the work is delicate, so having tweezers on hand will make folding easier.

Once you’ve made six star pieces using the same process, attach them front-to-back around a thread strung with beads to finish.

Coloring the star sections with a pen will make them look beautiful.

Goldfish fan

@mamekibi07

You can easily make a refreshing “goldfish fan” (uchiwa)! If you like, use it as inspiration for your summer room decor!Simple craft#simpleDIY#100-yen shop DIYHow-to videoWith childrenSummer Vacation CraftIndependent ResearchGoldfishGoldfish Bowl#Uchiwa#HandmadeUchiwaDaisoCrafting GirlTranslation

♪ Original Song – Mamekibi – Mamekibi

Let’s make a refreshing goldfish fan! First, cut a clear plastic sheet (including the handle) into the shape of a fan.

Make two slits on one side of a thick straw, insert it onto the handle part you cut from the sheet, then secure it with a stapler.

Use goldfish stickers and rhinestones to design the fan, and decorate around the handle with faux aquatic plants.

It’s best to lightly fix the plants with masking tape first, then attach them with a hot glue gun.

Once the glue is completely dry, it’s finished.

Display it in your room for an instant summery vibe!

Candle art

Summer candle art #diy #handmadegift #handmadeartist #parts #toys #gift #candleMaking #candleMaking #summer #sea #seashells

How about making candle art with ocean-themed motifs? Use a large shell as the base and decorate the rim with various shells and pearls.

Melt candle wax, add color, and pour it in.

Attach a wick for lighting, and once the candle hardens, it’s done.

You can use a single shell as the base, or stack small shells to create a support and make a two-tier design with two shells.

Color the candle blue to evoke the sea.

A hot glue gun is handy for attaching the parts.

String Art: Fireworks Wall Hanging

Great for summer break crafts too! Create a fireworks wall decoration with string art – Easy String Art Tutorial: Make a Beautiful Firework Decoration

We’d like to introduce a delicate string art fireworks wall decoration whose impression changes with the combination of threads and how they’re strung.

Cut drawing paper into circles: prepare one base circle, then three circles in large, medium, and small.

Make the base and the large circle the same size.

It’s recommended to use different colors for the large, medium, and small circles.

Mark the points where the thread will be hooked, then glue together the four circular sheets.

Make small cuts at the marked points, and string the thread while adjusting the spacing horizontally.

By varying the sizes of the circles and the thread colors, you can create fireworks with a three-dimensional feel.

Once finished, frame it and enjoy the summer fireworks!

Umbrella sun catcher

[Easy with 100-yen items] The umbrella sun catcher is unbelievably beautiful! #shorts

Let me introduce a soothing umbrella sun catcher that even adults will want to make.

Gather aurora cut cloth, a plush stand, needle-nose pliers, beads, glue, and double-sided tape, then let’s get started.

Draw eight circles on the aurora cut cloth and cut them out.

Fold each circle in half twice and secure it with double-sided tape.

Make the remaining circle pieces the same way.

Use double-sided tape to attach all eight pieces together to form an umbrella shape.

Thread beads onto a plush stand that has been cut in half using needle-nose pliers, then attach it to the center of the umbrella as the handle—and you’re done.

wind chime

[100-yen DIY] Wind chimes made of paper 🎐

When it comes to classic summer crafts, wind chimes might be the first thing that comes to mind.

This one is a papier-mâché wind chime made using a water balloon as the base.

Inflate a water balloon, secure it so it doesn’t move, and apply pieces of washi paper soaked in glue diluted with water.

Tear the washi into small pieces and layer them to cover the surface, but be sure to leave the area around the balloon’s knot open to form the mouth of the chime.

Once the glue dries, pop the balloon and shape the exterior.

Make a small hole at the top, thread a string with a strip (tanzaku) and a small bell, and you’re done.

Try making it with washi in your favorite colors!
