We’ve gathered many ideas—from wall displays you can put up in classrooms and hallways to impressive designs perfect for bulletin boards in entrances and halls.
It would also be lovely to add your favorite motifs, such as spring animals or birds.

[Wall Display] Decorate in April! Cherry Blossom Wall Display Idea Collection (31–40)
Grown-up-looking wall decoration made of paper
If you want to create a calm atmosphere, this idea is recommended.
Use black construction paper as the base and attach three-dimensional cherry blossoms and petals to it.
Try making matching decorations as well.
Bundle several narrow strips of construction paper cut to different lengths and staple them so they curve slightly; this will create an ornament with a traditional Japanese feel.
You can also add any other decorations you like.
However, if you add too many, it may look busy, so adjust as needed.
Fluffy cherry blossoms made with tissue paper
If you’re looking for slightly larger cherry blossom decorations to adorn the stage for graduation or entrance ceremonies, this is recommended.
With pink tissue paper and plastic string, you can make lovely cherry blossoms.
Each bloom is made carefully, so they look great.
First, stack 5–6 sheets of tissue paper and fold them into an accordion.
Tie the center with vinyl tape, then spread the accordion-folded paper open.
That’s it! Mix in white or red sheets with the pink for vibrant blossoms.
The number of sheets determines the number of petals, so you can adjust the flower size that way.
Perfect for anyone planning a big display!
A cute flower made from one sheet of tissue paper
Here’s how to make a cute flower using just one sheet of tissue paper.
First, fold the tissue paper into an accordion.
Then fold it in half.
After folding, round off the edges with scissors.
Staple the center, and gently open up the flower.
Once it’s opened, press down the center to finish.
You can make lots of flowers to decorate a wall, add leaves to make a bouquet, or cut the edges into points to turn it into a dandelion—there are many ways to arrange them, so give it a try!
Garland made with paper strips
Here’s a charming cherry blossom decoration made from paper strips.
You’ll need pink construction paper, a stapler, scissors, a pencil, a ruler, and thread.
Prepare one strip measuring 2 cm by 30 cm and another strip measuring 2 cm by 20 cm from the pink paper.
Fold the 20 cm strip in half, then fold each half again to form an M shape.
Fold the 30 cm strip in half as well, mark 5 cm from the loose/fluttering end, fold at the mark, then continue folding it into an accordion with 5 cm-wide sections.
Slightly fold the mountain-fold edges to shape them like cherry blossom petals, staple the ends together, and finally turn the loop inside out to finish.
Make lots of them and thread them onto a string to decorate!
Sakura mobile made of origami
Here’s an introduction to making a hanging cherry blossom ornament with origami.
You fold it the same way as when making an origami star to create a five-petaled cherry blossom.
Make four blossoms with the same pattern, stack them, and glue them together at the center.
When you gently open it up, the cherry blossom becomes three-dimensional and looks adorable from every angle! The key is to make four identical pieces, so when you cut patterns into the petals, create a template and use it to make four matching petals.
Decorating with clear fishing line or spring-colored yarn will brighten up your room.

Weeping cherry blossom arch
Here is an arch of weeping cherry blossoms that you can make using only origami paper and bubble wrap (packing material).
Just set it up at your entrance or room doorway to create a gorgeous, festive look.
The main arch is made simply by rolling up the bubble wrap, but it also looks cute hanging directly from the top of an entrance or window.
First, make one cherry blossom to use as a template.
Once that’s done, connect sheets of origami with double-sided tape to create a continuous chain of blossoms.
After connecting them, place half of the template blossom on top and cut along it to finish.
Cherry blossom wreath made of paper
Delicate and beautiful! Here’s how to make a cherry blossom wreath out of paper.
You’ll need: cardboard or thick paper, paper twine, glue, scissors, copy paper or origami paper, a yellow pen, ribbon, craft adhesive, a compass, and a utility knife.
First, cut the cardboard into a circle, cut out the center to make the base, then unravel the paper twine and weave it around the cut-out base.
Next, cut the copy paper or origami paper, color it, and fold it.
Finally, assemble the parts to create cherry blossoms and attach them to the base to finish!
