Halloween wall decoration
Let’s try arranging the familiar wall-decoration paper fans for Halloween! You can easily make one with a single sheet of construction paper, and with a few tweaks you can fully enjoy the Halloween vibe.
Cut the paper in half, accordion-fold each piece, connect the two folded pieces, tie the center with a string, then join the ends to form a circle.
Using Halloween colors like orange and purple is a great choice! Add decorations like jack-o’-lanterns and ghosts to enjoy the Halloween atmosphere.
It can be a piece of art! Maple leaf wall decoration
This decoration combines drawing paper and origami, featuring a soft look and striking, layered three-dimensionality.
You use a sheet of drawing paper with a lattice of cuts as the base, then layer maple leaf pieces on top.
By considering the base’s uneven surface as you add the pieces, you can effectively create depth and a realistic sense of dimension in the foliage.
It may also be important to choose a background color that highlights the maple leaf colors.
A rod and string are attached to the top of the base, making it easy to hang and display in a variety of locations.
Cute maple leaves
When it comes to plants that symbolize autumn, brilliantly colored red and yellow autumn leaves come to mind.
Let’s make those evocative fall leaves with origami.
This project combines parts to create a three-dimensional finish, resulting in sturdy origami that works not only as part of a decoration but also stands on its own.
Cut small pieces of origami paper with scissors, fold them into diamond shapes, and assemble them to form a maple leaf.
By paying attention to the seam in the center, you’ll achieve a lifelike three-dimensional shape.
You can even aim for a more realistic look by intentionally combining parts of slightly different sizes instead of using pieces that are all the same.
Cute cosmos
The flower name “cosmos” is written with the characters for autumn and cherry blossom (秋桜) because its petals resemble those of cherry blossoms.
This time, let’s make a cosmos flower with origami.
By folding a single sheet of paper finely to create each petal, you can nicely express the flower’s distinctive jagged notches.
Since a cosmos has eight petals, prepare eight sheets of origami.
Also, the yellow central disk of the flower, made by snipping fine cuts into the paper, turns out beautifully.
If it strikes you as somewhat similar to a chrysanthemum, that’s because cosmos is a member of the Asteraceae family and is also known by another name, “Ōshagiku” (literally, great spring wheel chrysanthemum).
Cosmos wall art decorated with handmade stamps
Here’s an award-worthy wall decoration idea using makeup sponges! Dab paint-soaked sponges onto shoji paper.
The naturally blurred colors give it a stylish, cute look.
Once the paper is dry, fold it and cut out petal shapes with scissors.
Next, gather some yellow tissue paper and use a plastic bottle cap to create a three-dimensional flower center.
Combine the two, and you’ve got pastel-colored autumn cosmos! Make lots to fill your room and bring in the fall vibe!
Handmade pom-pom stamp moon-viewing dumplings
How about making tsukimi dango by stamping dots onto black construction paper? First, glue a sanpo offering stand and a moon, both cut from construction paper, onto the black background.
For the dango, dip a sponge wrapped in cloth into white paint and stamp the dots onto the sanpo.
That’s all there is to it, so it can be finished quickly and also works well as an autumn wall decoration.
If you add pampas grass or rabbits made from origami or construction paper, it will look even more like a moon-viewing scene.
Try different variations and enjoy this autumn craft!
Origami Maple Leaf Wreath
This is a simple decoration made by combining and gluing origami maple leaves into a ring.
The folding method that creates a gap for inserting pieces is a particularly important point.
You’ll need six leaves to complete the ring, and I think it looks more beautiful if you alternate the colors.
Consider color combinations and balance, and try making a ring with maple leaves in a variety of colors.
To make it easier to display, you can reinforce the back by layering paper, and adding maple leaf parts to the front to enhance the three-dimensional effect is also recommended.
