Hanging persimmon ornaments

[Origami] How to fold a hanging persimmon decoration | Easy origami

Here’s a fun idea for a swaying persimmon hanging decoration.

It looks realistic, but the steps are simple.

First, prepare small sheets of origami paper.

Cut out orange circles and layer them alternately.

Then make the calyx from green origami paper, and roll the orange paper into a sphere to assemble it—that’s it.

Make lots of them and hang them on twine.

If you prepare persimmons in slightly different shades, they’ll stand out even more.

Alternatively, using slightly muted colors to mimic a dried look is also a great option.

Persimmon trinket box

Origami [Persimmon]

How about making a small persimmon-shaped container using origami? First, prepare green and orange origami paper.

Try to choose shades that resemble a real persimmon as closely as possible.

Then layer them and start folding.

A key point is to make it without using glue or scissors.

You’ll be amazed, thinking, “I can’t believe you can create something this impressive just by folding.” The finished container has a lid that closes, so it’s very practical.

Try putting snacks or other small items inside.

Full Moon Rabbit

[Origami for Moon Viewing] Easy and cute full moon rabbit made with a single sheet of origami / Autumn origami decoration for September — Origami Full Moon Rabbit Folding

This is a craft project where you create the image of a rabbit emerging on a full moon using a single sheet of origami paper.

By cleverly folding to form both the moon and the rabbit at the same time, it also helps develop fine finger movements.

As you proceed while understanding which part you are folding, the enjoyment of seeing it gradually come together should increase.

Once you’ve made the round full moon and the rabbit shape, draw the rabbit’s facial expression to finish.

Since this is a craft that reproduces a set form, add originality through how you draw the expression.

roasted sweet potato

[Origami] How to Fold a Baked Sweet Potato

Autumn is often called the season of hearty appetites, and it’s when many foods are especially delicious.

Let’s make one of those autumn treats—roasted sweet potatoes—out of origami.

Because the process is simple—just folding purple origami paper into the shape of a sweet potato—it’s important to be mindful of capturing the potato’s soft, rounded form and finishing it in a way that looks tasty.

Rather than making crisp, firm creases, lightly folding the paper will give it a softer look, which is also recommended.

While the purple peel is important, making the yellow interior and the wrapping paper three-dimensional will make it look even more appetizing.

Autumn hanging ornaments

How to Make Autumn Hanging Decorations with Origami and Paper Plates (with Audio Commentary) [Tsukurumon]

Enjoy the feeling of the season even while indoors! Here are some ideas for autumn hanging decorations.

This one involves cutting a paper plate into a spiral and using it as the base for your ornaments.

Choose decorations that symbolize autumn—origami maple leaves or ginkgo leaves, for example.

Attach them while adjusting the placement to keep a nice balance.

By the way, if you also attach decorations to the back side of the paper plate, it will give the piece a more three-dimensional look.
