Let’s make it with 100-yen shop materials! Christmas Craft Ideas Roundup (11–20)
Advent calendar
An advent calendar that doubles the excitement leading up to Christmas.
You can easily make it using only materials from a 100-yen shop.
Just line up 24 pieces of colored paper folded into triangles, and you’ll have a full-fledged tree-shaped calendar.
It’s also nice to tuck in sweets for a daily treat.
If you want to be eco-friendly, we recommend using clear cases that can be repurposed as small organizers after Christmas.
If the whole family joins in, it will make for a wonderful winter memory.
Felt Christmas tree
By simply layering colorful felt onto a cone-shaped base, you can create a fluffy, lovely tree.
It’s also appealing that you can choose colors to match your room’s vibe.
You can decorate it with ornaments however you like, so it seems perfect for the whole family to enjoy together.
It’s easy for small children to make, and adults are sure to get completely absorbed, too! Spend a chilly day crafting with your kids at home, and it’s sure to lift everyone’s Christmas spirit.
Christmas gnome
This is a craft project to make gnomes—spirits or fairies said to govern the earth—out of paper.
Roll a piece of white paper with fine slits cut into it to create the beard, then attach a paper-made pointed hat and a nose, and you’re done.
It’s easy to make.
If you change the hat colors and make a bunch, they’ll surely add a cute touch to your room during the Christmas season.
However, because it involves detailed work with scissors, please make it together with an adult who can assist if small children are doing the project.
Christmas wreath
This is a Christmas wreath you can make entirely with items from a 100-yen shop, from the wreath base to the decorations.
Since 100-yen shops now carry a wide variety of items, you can go for a cute look or a glamorous one.
Because the materials are relatively inexpensive, you can customize it as much as you like.
However, you will need a hot glue gun for the decorations, so an adult should assist during the crafting.
It’s a highly recommended Christmas wreath that’s fun to make with friends at daycare or kindergarten.
Round baubles for a Christmas tree
Introducing how to make a “Rolling Ball Christmas Tree” that both kids and adults can enjoy crafting! Materials: an easel, marbles, PP (polypropylene) sheets, square wooden rods, resin parts, string or thread, dowels, fishing sinkers, a perforated board (pegboard), felt, cord hooks, and double-sided tape.
First, cut the felt using the downloaded template.
Use double-sided tape to stick the felt onto the board in the shape of a tree.
Divide the square wooden rod into three equal pieces, cut the PP sheet, and attach the PP sheet to the rods with double-sided tape.
Next, attach the sinkers in an alternating pattern.
Install the cord hooks onto the rods and hammer in small nails for tying the string.
Attach dowels to the tree and mount the rods to create the seesaw section.
Finally, add a frame and a gate for the marbles using the rods, tie on the string, and you’re done! It’s also great as a Christmas party game.
Christmas tree made of yarn
Here’s how to make a simple Christmas tree using yarn! You’ll need cardboard, yarn, wood glue, and decorations.
First, make a cone out of cardboard.
A toilet paper roll makes it easier to shape.
Next, attach some wood glue to the end of the yarn and apply wood glue to the cone as you wrap the yarn around it.
That’s your tree.
Finally, glue on any decorations you like with wood glue, and you’re done! Try different yarn colors and tree sizes to create your own original Christmas trees.

Pom-poms are so cute! How to make a Christmas tree
The paper plate Christmas tree is a charming craft featuring adorable pom-poms.
Cut a paper plate in half, fold it into a triangle, and secure it with tape to create the tree shape.
Attach colorful pom-poms, and finish with a ribbon on top.
The fluffy texture is popular with kids, and each pom-pom adds to a bright, colorful look.
Because it’s made from a paper plate, it’s lightweight and perfect for decorating walls or windows.
Children can choose their favorite colors as they craft, making it easy to show their individuality.
Using simple materials, this idea results in a festive, eye-catching tree that’s fun to make and display.
