[Craft] For those giving their all in club activities! A collection of handmade amulet ideas (1–10)
Rabbit Daruma amulet
How about giving these laid-back, cute rabbit-daruma charms to your clubmates or someone special? The daruma motif is perfect for making wishes, and just looking at the relaxed, adorable bunny before a match is sure to ease nerves! Another plus is that you can hand-sew them using felt fabric.
You could even add embroidery patterns or stitch in characters like “Pass” for good luck.
If embroidery isn’t your thing, fabric pens or stamps work great too! Don’t worry about making them perfect—think of the recipient and have fun creating them.
Flower keychain
How about handcrafting a flower keychain that anyone from any club would love to receive? It’s not only cute to look at, but also perfect as a lucky charm that carries wishes for victory.
All you have to do is thread a thick colored cord through a keychain part and braid it.
Just changing the color of the cord can completely transform the vibe, so give it a try! Made with thick cord, it has great presence.
Braid it carefully while thinking of the person you’re cheering for! It’s also great that you can easily make it with materials from the 100-yen shop.
KitKat omamori (good-luck charm)
https://www.tiktok.com/@mu1718/video/6986640450056736001How about a “KitKat amulet” as a unique handmade charm idea? Because the brand name KitKat evokes the phrase “kitto katsu” (sure to win), it’s something students are familiar with! It might be fun to design it to resemble the product packaging, such as by playfully adapting the KitKat logo.
You could also enclose a motif unique to your club, so you can support your hardworking teammates from the heart.
Give them to your teammates to strengthen your bonds!
Candy Club Activity Strap
A strap you can wear anytime, anywhere works great as a good-luck charm too! It’s also a perfect gift for your club teammates, friends, or significant other.
How about making a cute, clear “candy club” strap by customizing a cardholder you can pick up at a 100-yen shop? Using a soft cardholder makes it easy to shape however you like, and if you put a little motif inside, the contents will show through for an adorable finish.
If you handcraft the motif to match the club, you can put your feelings into it as well.
No-sew amulet
A no-sew amulet that even people who aren’t good at sewing can make! By using printed fabric tape you can buy at 100-yen shops, you can create it like a simple DIY.
Start with paper or fabric as the base, then fold it up while wrapping it with the fabric tape.
Once it forms a pouch, fold the left and right sides of the opening inward to shape it like an omamori.
After that, pierce a hole with an awl and thread a cord through to finish! The classic knot for omamori, the “double Kanou knot,” might be a bit tricky, but it really makes it look like a proper amulet, so give it a try!
Uniform amulet
Why not make good-luck charms inspired by your club uniforms to show your support? It’s a perfect idea for gifts to your teammates, too! The common method is to cut two felt pieces into the shape of a uniform and sew them together, but if you cut the felt symmetrically top to bottom, you can reduce the sewing needed.
You can also show your personality with stitching, embroidery, or appliqué! Attach a cord at the end to complete the charm.
Stuffing a little cotton inside to make it like a mascot could make it extra cute.
A small, round charm
This is a cute, round omamori (good-luck charm) you can easily make using fabric scraps from a 100-yen shop.
It’s also a great way to use leftover fabric, so if you have any at home, give it a try! Prepare two circular pieces of fabric, place them right sides together, and sew them into a pouch.
You can use a sewing machine or stitch by hand—either is fine! Turn it right side out, then gather the opening and thread a cord through.
If you tie a double-kanou (musubi) knot, it will look just like a traditional omamori.
Stuff a little batting inside to give it a cute, plump shape—highly recommended!
