May this cute cherry blossom wall become something that cheers on children as they begin their new lives.
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.

3D cherry blossoms made with construction paper
How about making a three-dimensional cherry blossom out of construction paper? First, cut two pieces of paper to 2 cm and 5 cm, and shape them into a single petal.
Repeat this four times and then assemble them to create one flower.
It’s a bit of a process, but you’ll end up with a beautifully silhouetted cherry blossom.
You can stick them on walls or pictures, or simply place them somewhere—they’ll catch the eye either way.
Try making many in different colors.
Mixing pale pink and white will give you vibrantly colored cherry blossoms.
Cherry blossoms for indoor hanami (flower viewing)
How about making a wall decoration so you can enjoy cherry blossom viewing indoors? Let’s fill an entire wall with flowers and have fun.
All you need is tissue paper you can buy at a 100-yen shop.
Stack five sheets and fold them accordion-style.
After folding, staple the center, then gently separate the layers so they don’t tear.
Once all the layers are fluffed out, you’ll have a large, round flower base.
Next, make sakura blossoms from origami and stick them on top.
Create the tree trunk with brown paper, attach the flower section, and you’re done.
Making a few in different colors will add depth.
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.
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.
Gorgeous semi-three-dimensional cherry blossoms
Cherry blossoms that bloom every spring have been a beloved theme in tanka and haiku since ancient times.
Cherry blossoms are always beautiful, no matter the era.
How about making them a bit three-dimensional this year? First, make a regular cherry blossom flower.
Cut a small slit in one of the petals and glue it to the neighboring petal.
This part will create the three-dimensional effect.
Lightly curl the petals with a pencil, and the blossom is complete.
Next, attach these blossoms onto a cherry tree base.
Since you’ll be adding detail to every flower, please create many with the help of several teachers.

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!
Torn-paper cherry blossoms
Let me introduce a torn-paper collage of cherry blossoms that captures the warm feeling of spring.
Get your materials ready: origami paper, construction paper, colored pencils, scissors, glue, and double-sided tape.
First, make a draft, cut out the cherry blossoms, and start sticking torn pieces of origami onto them.
The key is to place the pieces so there are no gaps.
If you glue cherry blossom-shaped origami cutouts on top of the collage, it might create a more three-dimensional look.
Once you attach the cherry blossom trunk, it’s complete! Cutting additional origami into cherry blossom shapes and decorating around it will make it even more vibrant.
