Tsum Tsum charm

Tsum Tsum amulets featuring adorably chibi-fied Disney characters.

Since they can be made entirely from felt, this idea is great even for sewing beginners! Because the characters are simplified, you can use the designs as-is—that’s another plus.

Make one with the recipient’s favorite character, create matching designs, or add jersey numbers for a sporty club vibe—any of these would be lovely! Attach a strap so they can carry it with them all the time.

Give it a try!

Felt ball charm

For those who enjoy steady, detailed work or love handmade crafts, felt ball charms are highly recommended! They’re a perfect gift idea for anyone in ball-sport clubs like tennis, soccer, basketball, or volleyball.

By choosing felt as the material, it becomes beginner-friendly for sewing and gives a warm, cozy look.

Since shaping a ball requires fine work, hand sewing is better than using a machine.

It’s lovely to stitch each seam with care and intention, don’t you think? Finishing it as a strap or keychain will make it even more practical.

Puzzle keychain

[Difficulty ★★☆☆☆] Valentine Accessories ❤ A Satisfying Snap! ❤ Puzzle Pair Accessories [Handmade] [shrink plastic]
Puzzle keychain

How about making puzzle keychains that match with your clubmates and get everyone excited? Wouldn’t it be wonderful if a special design appears when all the pieces are put together? It’s a great charm idea that can strengthen your bond as a team—feel free to use it as inspiration! Trace the puzzle design you want onto shrink plastic sheets you can buy at a 100-yen shop, then cut it out with scissors.

The plastic shrinks to about a quarter of its original size when baked in a toaster, so keep that in mind when planning your design.

After baking, you can coat it with UV resin to give it a glossy, domed finish—also good! Adding names or decorative parts will likely make it even more appreciated.

Felt amulet

Felt amulet

Let’s make a good-luck charm using felt, the perfect material for handmade crafts! Felt doesn’t require edge finishing, so you can use it as-is after cutting—one of its big advantages.

It’s also great for beginners at sewing.

Cut a rectangle of felt, fold it in half, and close the top opening—done! Add embroidery or appliqué before you close the opening.

Thread a cord through and tie it to finish.

Customize and have fun by changing the appliqué motif to match your club activity or by designing it to look like a uniform!

origami amulet

[One sheet of origami] Super easy! Cute “omamori” folding method – How to make an amulet with origami. It’s easy to make!
origami amulet

Here’s a super easy amulet you can make with a single sheet of origami paper! It’s perfect when you want to mass-produce amulets but don’t have much time, or if you’re not very crafty but still want something handmade.

Use a sheet of your favorite origami paper cut in half.

There aren’t any particularly difficult folds, so anyone can try it with ease.

You can also customize it by sealing a message inside the amulet or threading a string through it.

Changing the material—like using brightly patterned origami, glitter origami, or washi paper—will give it a different feel.

Have fun customizing it to match the recipient’s image!

Lined amulet

Why not try making a real omamori charm with a lining? It’s perfect as a gift for a partner or a friend who has an important game coming up! First, choose one fabric each for the outer and lining pieces and cut them into rectangles.

Place them right sides together, sew along the left and right edges, then press the seam allowances open with an iron.

Next, bring the seam allowances to the center, sew one end closed, and on the other end leave the lining side partially open as a turning gap.

Then trim all the corners, turn it right side out, close the turning gap, and tuck the lining into the outer fabric’s pouch.

Finally, fold both sides of the opening inward and press with an iron, thread a cord through a hole made with an awl, and you’re done! It takes a bit of effort, but it will become a charm filled with heartfelt care.

glove-shaped amulet

It’s a realistic yet very cute glove-shaped charm.

Send this charm to cheer on your school’s baseball team! Since making the glove requires several parts, it’s convenient to prepare a pattern first.

Just cut the felt according to the pattern and hand-sew the pieces together, so even beginners or those who aren’t confident in their sewing can try it easily.

The glove alone is, of course, adorable, but pairing it with a baseball will make it an even more polished gift.

Adding the recipient’s uniform number or name would make it a lovely, personalized finish.
