flower box

[For Mother’s Day gifts] How to make a handmade flower box: a DIY using faux flowers from 100-yen shops.

A flower box is a recommended gift for someone special.

Choose the flowers your loved one likes and pack them into a box.

For this project, everything you need—boxes and flowers—can be found at a 100-yen shop.

We also recommend adding a personal touch by decorating the box with masking tape, which gives it a more refined look.

The process is simply packing the flowers into the box, so even older adults can do it smoothly.

The key is how you arrange them to make the display look beautiful—that’s where your skill shines.

Paper tag of tulip

How to Make Spring-Inspired Tulip Paper Tags – DIY: How to Create a Three-Dimensional Tulip Paper Tag / Tutorial

Let me introduce some paper tags with lovely spring colors.

First, tie a ribbon.

Using a fork helps you make a neat bow.

Next, make the tulips.

Apply glue to a piece of wire and fix a bead in place.

Make five of these.

Then cut flower shapes out of construction paper, punch a hole in the center, and shape them nicely.

Make five of these as well.

Thread each flower onto the wire from the bottom and glue it so that it wraps around the bead.

Bundle the five together and wrap them with a strip of construction paper to hold them.

Make leaves out of construction paper and glue them to the wire, and your bouquet is ready.

Finally, attach the bouquet and the ribbon to a tag-shaped piece of paper, and you’re done.

How about adding a touch of gratitude for a Mother’s Day gift? Give it a try!

A magnet that looks like a cake

Making cake-like magnets with plastic bottle caps♪ Great as mini gifts too ✨ #Shorts

Introducing a magnet that looks just like a cake, made from felt and a plastic bottle cap.

First, cut the felt into a circle to match the size of the cap.

Also cut a long, narrow strip, checking the size so it can wrap around the cap.

Apply glue inside the cap, insert air-dry clay and a magnet, and secure them in place.

Then cover the magnet with masking tape as a protective layer.

Attach the pre-cut felt, wrapping it around the outside.

Adding lace around the side gives it a cute finish.

Finally, decorate the felt “lid” as you like, and it’s complete.

Since there are no difficult steps, this craft can also be used for finger rehabilitation or occupational therapy.

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.

Bouquet made of yarn

No knitting!! A bouquet made with yarn 💐 yarn bouquet

Here’s a yarn craft that’s perfect for seniors who enjoy delicate, detailed work.

Wrap yarn around a fork to make a flower.

When we think of yarn crafts, we often imagine knitting, but with a fork you can create flowers without knitting.

Make each petal by wrapping yarn around the fork, then use a needle to connect the petals.

Seniors who enjoy handicrafts will likely have fun making these.

If fine motor tasks are challenging, offer support and try making them together.

Attach a stem and a flower center to finish.

Make several and arrange them into a bouquet—it’s a lovely project.

Macaron strap made with mizuhiki (decorative cord)

[Mizuhiki] How to Make a Macaron Strap with Daiso’s Mizuhiki [Make the Plum Knot Even Cuter!!]

Here’s an idea for making a macaron strap using mizuhiki cords with materials from a 100-yen shop.

This time, prepare pink-toned colors.

First, straighten the mizuhiki to make it easier to handle.

Trim the ends, make a small awaji knot, and then form it into a plum blossom (ume) knot.

Once the shape is set, secure it with glue.

Attach a bell and strap hardware to a head pin, layer the ume knot on top, and glue them together.

Hold down the ends and round the shape to finish.

Since it involves a lot of hand work, it should provide plenty of stimulation for the brain.

It’s recommended because you can also expect brain-training benefits.
