[Day Service] Spring Take-Home Crafts: Ideas to Warmly Brighten Your Room

Wreath of daffodils and roses

[Origami] Daffodil and Rose Wreath

Daffodils bloom until early spring, and roses bloom around late spring, so even though their seasons are offset, both can be said to be representative spring flowers.

This is a simple yet dimensional wreath with a glamorous look that combines daffodils and roses.

Another key point is that the wreath base and stem parts are kept flat, which helps emphasize the three-dimensionality of the daffodil and rose blossoms.

For each flower, it’s important to deliberately add fine creases, cuts, and bends, and to shape them carefully so that a sense of depth and volume comes through.

Bamboo shoot magnet

[Craft Activity] [Dollar Store DIY] Easy spring-colored ribbon! Bamboo shoot magnets [Spring Crafts] [Craft Vlog] Memories from back then.

Let me introduce a cute bamboo shoot magnet that brings a touch of spring.

You can get everything you need at a 100-yen shop, so it’s easy to prepare.

First, cut a circle out of thick paper, layer small pieces of felt on top, and make the face.

Imagine the bamboo shoot’s husk as a kimono and stick on four strips of tape to form the collar.

It stays in place better if you secure the back with tape.

Use eye stickers, yarn, and felt to add features to the face you made, giving it an adorable expression.

Attach thick paper and a magnet to the back, cover it with felt, and you’re done.

The steps are simple, making it perfect for recreational activities at senior care facilities, too.

Tulip Bouquet Card

Origami/Construction Paper: Tulip Bouquet Card

A bouquet card of tulips—the quintessential flower that colors spring—truly makes you feel the season’s arrival.

It’s easy to make by combining construction paper and origami paper, but since it involves fine work with scissors and the like, please make sure someone is there to assist if older adults are doing the craft.

If you’re making it as a day-service recreation activity, it might be nice to have participants write a message to their families on the card.

Just looking at the finished piece warms the heart—it’s a springtime activity full of gentle feelings.

Flower basket

[100-Yen DIY] A flower basket made with paper cord and plastic bottle caps ♡

Here’s a small, cute flower basket you can make using a plastic bottle cap and felt.

Apply double-sided tape around the outside of the bottle cap, then stick on paper cord, wrapping it all the way around.

Attach pom-poms (decoration balls) to the inside, twist a piece of paper cord to form the handle, and attach it to complete the basket.

Cut felt into long, wavy strips.

Thread a needle through and pull to shape it into a flower.

Decorate the center of the flower with beads, then attach it to the basket to finish.

This craft is also recommended for rehabilitation and recreational activities in senior care facilities, so give it a try!

A hydrangea ball bouquet made with origami and tissue paper

Hydrangea wall decorations and ball bouquets made with origami and tissue paper / raindrops from clear files — How to make paper hydrangea wall decorations and ball bouquets

Hydrangeas made from tissue paper look very glamorous and really stand out.

Just displaying them in a room instantly brightens the space and brings a soothing presence.

First, prepare tissue paper, accordion-fold it, and secure it with a rubber band.

Then gently fluff open the tissue paper.

Even at this stage it looks like a beautiful hydrangea, but if you make small flowers from origami and attach them, it will look even prettier.

Next, prepare a clear file and cut it into raindrop shapes.

Combine everything together and you’ll have a stylish hydrangea ball bouquet.

Flower keychain

I tried making a flower keychain with 100-yen shop materials 🌼 #shorts

Let’s weave the yarn threaded through the keychain part and shape it into a flower.

Using not only yarn but also thicker materials like colored cords is recommended, as they offer different design possibilities and make your hands easier to see while working.

It’s a simple process: layer yarn of a different color over the yarn threaded through the part’s hole and braid it while paying attention to the order.

Be particular about your choices of colors and materials and how you layer them, and create your own unique design.

The way you tighten the layered yarn will also change the overall look, so it could be fun to try various patterns.
