It’s exciting to craft delicate, glamorous hydrangeas yourself, isn’t it? This time, how about making hydrangeas in your favorite colors using origami paper? You’ll need origami paper, Tant paper, a frame, a white pen, pearl beads, a craft knife, precision scissors, tweezers, glue, and a glue bottle, among other items.
It’s also a great project when you want to focus on making something, or when you want to create a seasonal gift.
Tealight lamp shade
Make it with a single sheet of origami! Here’s an idea for a lampshade for tea lights.
This lampshade is used for candles placed in small cups.
This time, let’s try making a lampshade out of origami for use with string lights.
What you’ll need: one sheet of origami paper, a ruler, a craft knife, and string lights.
Choose a translucent origami paper so the light softly shines through for a soothing effect.
It’s also lovely to spend time finding a design that matches your taste or interior décor.
rope coaster
Easy to make! Here’s a DIY idea for a rope coaster.
First, draw a circle of your preferred size on a clear plastic file.
This circle will determine the size of your coaster.
After applying glue over the circle, start arranging the rope in a spiral from the center of the circle.
Once the entire circle is filled with rope, cut the rope and glue the ends together so it doesn’t unravel.
Press down on the rope from above to smooth the surface, then cut the clear file to match the size of the rope.
That’s it! Choose any rope color you like.
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.
Goldfish fan
@mamekibi07 You can easily make a refreshing “goldfish fan” (uchiwa)!

♪ 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
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.
Star Tanabata Decorations
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.
