Remaking Daiso Christmas paper cups 🎄 How to make an easy ornament-shaped candy holder 🎅

A craft idea for a candy holder that can also be displayed as a Christmas ornament.

Let’s make small Christmas items by customizing dollar-store supplies.

Wrap a band around the top of a paper cup and create a Santa, reindeer, or snowman, then trim off any unnecessary parts.

Make a hole in the center of the top piece where you’ve applied double-sided tape, thread a ribbon through it, and decorate with pom-poms or beads.

By making a separate ribbon for decoration and another for hanging, you can adapt it to different situations.

Once it’s finished, fill it with your favorite treats like candies or chocolates and enjoy.

A 3D tree with marble rolling and sticker pasting

Let’s make a cute Christmas tree using a marble-rolling painting technique.

First, prepare green construction paper and have fun rolling marbles over it.

It’s best to use bright, festive colors.

Once the paint is dry, fold and shape the paper so it becomes a three-dimensional tree, and let the children add further decorations with round stickers.

Next, fasten two plastic bottle caps together and wrap them with brown construction paper to resemble a tree pot.

Finally, glue the tree onto the caps, and you’re done! Don’t forget to add a star on top of the tree.

Sparkly ornaments made with pipe cleaners and glue

Would you like to make some sparkly ornaments to boost the Christmas mood? You can create them with everyday materials like pipe cleaners and wood glue! First, shape a pipe cleaner into a triangle and apply wood glue around it.

Flip the pipe cleaner over, place it on baking paper, and fill the inside with glue.

Next, dip a toothpick or similar tool into paint to draw patterns, then decorate with beads.

Once the glue is completely dry, slowly peel it off the baking paper—and it’s done! You can also have fun by shaping the pipe cleaner into a star or a boot, or by changing the paint colors.

Handmade ornaments are a lovely way to decorate the Christmas tree with your kids.

Wreath Photo Frame

ameblo.jp

This is a photo frame inspired by a Christmas wreath, decorated by using a paper plate cut into a ring.

If you’re going for a Christmas feel, red and green decorations are the classic choice! While considering the color balance, layer origami so there aren’t any gaps.

Decorations wrapped with yarn are also recommended.

If the photo ends up being too unstable, you might try a variation where you attach the decorated ring to another paper plate.

A tree made with nuts and yarn

Let me introduce a tree craft made with nuts and yarn that’s fun to make, too.

First, prepare a paper plate and create a spattering effect to make it look like snow is falling.

Seeing the snow appear as if it’s really piling up will definitely get you excited.

Next, wrap yarn around the paper plate.

Keep a Christmas tree shape in mind and form a triangle.

Finally, decorate the yarn part with nuts and other natural items, and you’re done.

If you use nuts you picked up yourself, you’ll feel even more attached to your creation.

Yarn-Wrapping Tree

Here’s a Christmas tree you can make by wrapping everyday yarn! Be sure to try it with your kids.

First, cut a triangle out of thick paper and make small slits around the edges.

Next, wrap the yarn around, hooking it into the slits as you go.

Decorate it by sticking on beads, then combine it with a base made by wrapping origami paper around a cut toilet paper roll—and you’re done! It stands up for display, making a nice accent for your room and helping set an even more festive Christmas mood.

[Origami] Snowflake

[Origami] Snowflake 3D Easy to make with origami!

How about making a 3D snowflake out of origami? You can make one snowflake using six 7.5 cm sheets.

First, fold each sheet into a triangle twice.

Next, check the angles and the folded (closed) edge, then make three cuts, leaving about 5 mm uncut at the top, and unfold.

Lift the middle left and right sections and glue them together, then glue the third section as well.

Make six of these, doing the same on the back side, and glue them together to complete the snowflake.

A handmade snowflake has a unique warmth and will brighten up your room.

Give it a try with your child!
