Kitpas are crayon-like sticks you can draw with on windows and mirrors, and the marks wipe away easily with water—like magic paint.

With these, you can brighten up windows and mirrors in vivid colors! Draw pictures, create a stained-glass look—use your ideas to make the space cheerful and glamorous.

How about a mermaid spot where you can take photos that look like you’re underwater? Put blue film over fluorescent lights to create ocean-style lighting, and arrange plenty of balloons to evoke pearls and water bubbles.

It’s also nice to make seaweed using film.

And don’t forget a shell-shaped seat.

For those who want an even more mermaid-like experience, prepare skirt-style mermaid costumes and tiaras.

Sew the costumes from fabric.

It would also be cute if the staff wore costumes like mermaids, dolphins, or turtles.

Envelope paper fan

@miro_ouchiphoto.diy

You can make such fancy decorations this easily with just envelopes!! I’m using No. 4 envelopes from Seria. You need 15 envelopes to make one, so you can make two for 100 yen—great value!HinamatsuriThe Doll Festival#PaperFan#100-yen shop DIYEntrance Ceremony

♬ LUV ME – TWICE

Here’s a stunning paper fan you can make using materials from a 100-yen shop.

All you need are envelopes, scissors, and glue.

Trim off the excess parts of the envelopes, then make three sets by gluing five envelopes together for each set.

Cut out decorative shapes, stack the sets, and glue them together to finish.

When you open it, you’ll have a large, beautiful floral decoration.

Add a ribbon or combine it with a tapestry, and it will look so elegant you’d never guess it’s handmade.

It folds flat for easy storage, so you can use it year after year.

Give it a try for decorating around the school!

Paper Cup Flower Light

How about using a paper-cup light to create a lovely atmosphere for your school or cultural festival? With a bit of creativity, you can assemble a flower light that looks like a rose.

Cut two paper cups in half to make four pieces in total.

On each piece, trim one of the pointed corners and use a stick to curve the edges.

Layer the four pieces while imagining rose petals.

Make several roses the same way, and when you put them together, they become a lampshade.

The white color of the paper cups also works nicely, making this a great decoration idea even when you’re short on time.

Marquee Light

These stylish letter lights are called “marquee lights,” a type of lighting inspired by electronic signboards.

Besides letters, there are many cute designs like hearts and stars.

For a school festival, placing them in eye-catching spots—such as to mark a class entrance, as signs for food stalls, or at event venues—makes things easy to find and adds a festive touch.

With a bit of creativity, you can even make them using supplies from a 100-yen shop.

They’re a recommended decoration to liven up your school festival.

photo garland

DIY #1 photo garland

This is a decoration idea where you attach clips to a wire and tuck in your favorite photos to create a garland-like display.

The key point is which photos you choose—pay attention to the overall color balance when arranged, and display memorable photos that suit the situation.

Since the wire and clips are made of sturdy materials, it’s recommended to print the photos on thicker stock as well to create a cohesive look.

Alternatively, using a variety of clip types on purpose can add a colorful, lively feel.

candle

Using candles can create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

First, find a space that can be darkened.

Then think about how to arrange the candles.

For example, you could line up many simple candles, or you could arrange colorful ones.

The former will give a sacred impression, while the latter will create a lively feel.

By the way, if school rules or other regulations prohibit open flames, using LED candle lights is a good alternative.
