Here’s a craft idea for making an ogre (oni) using a lactic acid bacteria drink container as the base.

Wrap the entire container with yarn to represent the oni’s skin color—such as red or blue—and add yellow-and-black striped pants.

Place yarn hair on top of the container and glue on horns made from felt.

Use rhinestone stickers and thread to create the face, and give it a spiked club to hold to finish it off.

The oni looks cute on its own, but if you prepare a base decorated with beans and display two figures—a red oni and a blue oni—on it, it will look even nicer.

If you have the time, be sure to make the base as well.

Handmade felt demon bean box

[No-Sew] Handmade Oni Bean Box with Felt, Masu/Setsubun/No Pattern Needed/100-Yen Store DIY/felt/handmade/craft

Here’s how to make a soft bean box out of felt.

This one has an ogre face on the side of the box, so it works great as a decorative piece too.

The key when making it is to fold the felt in half to make it double-layered, which gives the box strength.

When shaping it into a box, the corners will also be thicker, making it easier to glue.

Once the box is done, all that’s left is to attach the facial parts and horns cut from felt.

Scary face, cute face, funny face… Express whatever expression you like.

Handmade Oni hat

Let’s try making a handmade ogre (oni) hat! The main material is yarn.

Choose yarn in your favorite color and wrap it around a piece of cardboard over and over.

Once it’s thick enough, slide it off the cardboard, tie it in the middle, and round it out to form the hair section.

Next, draw patterns on construction paper, roll it into cone-shaped horn pieces, and glue them onto the yarn.

Finally, attach everything to the hat base made from cardboard and elastic, and you’re done! It’ll turn out so cute that you’ll be counting down the days to Setsubun.

Oni Piñata

@lunimama_asobi

It's Runi here 🐰 I was wondering what to make for a Setsubun craft… After thinking about it a lot, I came up with a piñata! Do you know what a piñata is? It’s like a festive ball they make for kids’ birthdays in Central and South America 🎊 It’s filled with candy, and everyone whacks it with a stick to break it open 😘 Making a proper one can be a lot of work 🥹 so I made a simple version with a paper bag! The kids were super excited about the oni (ogre) and treated it like a treasure 🤭 They loved it so much we ended up doing four rounds 😂 For the stick, I rolled up a flyer and wrapped it with gift wrap! I stuck it to the ceiling with duct tape 😂 That level of effort felt just right in terms of difficulty 🫶

♫ Pa Pi Pu Pe POP! (Toast with Milk – Chorus ver.) – Appare!

A piñata is something like a decorative ball used in Mexican celebrations.

It’s filled with candy and hung up, and people break it open with a stick.

Making a traditional paper ball from scratch can be a bit of work, but using a paper bag makes it super easy! Just cut out ogre-themed parts from origami paper, stick them onto a paper bag, put candy inside, and seal the bag, and it’s done.

Punch holes, thread a string through, and hang it from above to make it even more like a traditional decorative ball.

You could also just hook it lightly somewhere, let the bag drop to the floor, open it up, and enjoy snack time.

Realistic demon decoration

[Care Recreation/Seasonal Crafts] Want to make a scary Setsubun demon? [Recre]

Speaking of Setsubun, it’s the custom of driving away scary ogres and evil spirits by throwing beans, isn’t it? Many older adults probably do bean-throwing at home for Setsubun as well.

Here’s a recommended February craft: a realistic ogre decoration.

Try using crumpled red or blue tissue paper for the ogre’s face—it will create a rugged, craggy look.

If you also attach Japanese-patterned paper to the backing, it will perfectly match the traditional image of Setsubun.

Older adults may even enjoy reminiscing about their Setsubun memories while working on the craft.

Paper-clay Setsubun decoration

I tried making a Setsubun entrance decoration — miniature Setsubun (the last day of winter) in clay [a miniature garden life using “Konerundo” clay]

It’s so stylish to have seasonal decorations in your own room at the facility, in a corner of the shared space, or even at home in the entryway, bathroom, or on the stairs.

Here we’re introducing a miniature Setsubun garden made with modeling clay.

Since it’s displayed in a plastic case, it’s easy to carry around.

White paper clay can be hard to paint later, so we recommend starting with colorful resin clay that’s already tinted.

Create your one-and-only original miniature garden with oni (ogres), Otafuku, holly, nandina, and more!
