I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

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 look, red and green decorations are classics; layer origami so there are no gaps while keeping the color balance in mind.

Wrapping yarn around it is also recommended, and you can use the yarn to create the structure that holds the photo in place.

If the photo still feels unstable, another option is to attach the decorated ring onto a separate paper plate.

A Christmas tree made by sticking pieces together

Here’s an idea for a Christmas tree made by combining and pasting pieces together.

As the name suggests, you create a large Christmas tree by attaching smaller pieces.

First, cut construction paper into triangles to represent the tree.

Give one piece to each person and let them decorate it however they like.

Then, paste the triangles on the wall, fitting them together to form one large triangle—and you’re done.

Try planning it out while calculating how many pieces you’ll need.

Beads and stickers are also great for decorating.

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

Introducing a Christmas tree you can make by wrapping yarn—an easy craft using familiar materials! Try it with your kids.

First, cut a piece of thick paper into a triangle and snip small notches around the edges.

Next, wrap yarn around it, tucking it into the notches as you go.

Decorate with beads, then combine it with a base made from a cut toilet paper roll wrapped in origami paper—and you’re done! Since it stands upright, it makes a great accent for your room and will really boost the festive Christmas mood.
