Accompanist / Piano Instructoryuri
Accompanist pianist × piano instructor × web writer. I began piano lessons at age four and, inspired by my piano teacher, decided to pursue music. I went on to specialized music programs in high school and university, where I discovered the appeal of accompanying instrumentalists and singers. Currently, alongside teaching piano, I work mainly in my home region of Aichi as an accompanist for flute, voice, choir, and more. Through lessons, my students often introduce me to trending songs, and my hobby is trying anything on the piano—Japanese and Western pop, commercial jingles, and beyond. Since 2021, I’ve also been active as a web writer, covering music and a variety of other genres.

A wreath made with a paper plate and yarn is a warm and lovely idea.

Cut a hole in the center of the paper plate, then punch eight holes around it.

Finally, use yarn to tie the bell decoration to the punched paper plate.

Ball ornament wreath

How about making a festive wreath using Christmas ball ornaments? Prepare gold, silver, and red balls, plus a wreath with slightly larger holes that can fit the balls.

Use wire to attach the balls evenly around both the inner and outer edges of the wreath.

Once you get the hang of it, try adding a variety of balls—green, pink, white, and more—to see if you can create an even cuter arrangement! We also recommend trying variations by changing the wreath size.
