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.

Christmas wreath crafting ideas: DIY projects kids will enjoy (1–10)

A ring-shaped wreath

You can make a very cute Christmas wreath just by threading a looped strip of construction paper through a paper plate.

All you need are colored construction paper, a paper plate, and items like origami paper or ribbon.

First, cut a slit in the paper plate and remove the center.

Next, cut the construction paper to your preferred width—about 5 cm—and decorate it with sparkly embellishments or stickers.

Roll it into a loop and thread it through the paper plate.

Finally, use a hole punch to make holes on both sides of the plate’s slit, attach a ribbon, and you’re done.

It’s easy and fun, so be sure to try it with your children!
