[For Seniors] Brighten Up December Walls! Christmas Decoration Ideas

Christmas tree made with balloons

[Christmas Tree] Easy Origami Decorations: How to Make a Balloon Christmas Tree – For Preschool Craft Time and Elderly Care Recreation

A wall decoration using balloons: a balloon Christmas tree.

Attach string or nylon tape to the wall, then tie on inflated balloons.

If you bring the string forward more as you go lower, the whole tree gains depth and looks even cuter.

Once you’ve made the tree base with balloons, create and add the star for the top and other ornaments.

Inflating balloons takes lung power, so it’s a bit of a workout! For ornaments, make whatever you like—such as Santa Claus or Christmas boots—using colored paper or chenille stems, and decorate away!

Christmas wreath

[Christmas Craft] Made with origami! Cute! <Christmas Wreath> [Easy Craft] Handmade Christmas Decorations — Handmade Christmas wreath

The key to this wreath is to roll, not fold! By curling the pieces, you’ll create a wreath with a three-dimensional, voluminous look.

After cutting an origami sheet in half, carefully roll it without flattening, secure it with glue, and then cut it into four equal parts.

Make several of these leaf pieces for the wreath and glue them in a circle on the backing paper so they overlap.

Finally, decorate the wreath with a ribbon and other embellishments made from origami, and you’re done! Be sure to adjust your pressure as you work so you don’t create creases.

Three-dimensional wall-mounted Christmas tree

[Craft Idea] Christmas Tree Crafts (with templates) (December) (wall decorations) (senior recreation/occupational therapy/day service) (early childhood education) (origami) (DIY)

Here are some ideas for a three-dimensional wall-mounted Christmas tree that you can also enjoy decorating.

First, prepare green origami paper and double-sided colored origami paper.

Stack these two sheets, fold them in half, and cut along a Christmas tree template you prepared separately.

This will create a shape that looks like a Christmas tree cut in half.

Attach the flat side to the wall and display it.

You can also decorate the tree as you like.

By the way, templates are available for download online.

A Christmas tree made using garlands

[Craft Idea] Wall Decoration Paper Christmas Tree Craft (December) (Activities for Seniors) (Early Childhood/Educational) (Creative) (Wall Decoration) (Origami)

We’d like to introduce a wall decoration: a Christmas tree with cute, plump, rounded leaves.

While most wall decorations are flat, this one creates a three-dimensional Christmas tree.

Using the same method as making paper chains, glue the ends of thin, rectangular strips of origami paper to form loops, then attach them in the shape of a fir tree.

Staff can cut the origami into rectangles, and users can make the loops.

Finish by decorating around the tree with snow, Christmas boots, or any embellishments you like.

Christmas hanging ornament

[Craft Idea] Christmas Hanging Decorations (December) (Christmas Ornaments) (Activities for Seniors / Occupational Therapy) (Wall Decorations)

These are hanging decorations with festive motifs that evoke Christmas, such as Santa Claus and holly leaves.

Pay attention to how each motif is made and layered to create a three-dimensional finish.

To make Santa Claus, roll a piece of red construction paper cut into a fan shape, then attach parts like the hat and face to complete it.

The holly leaves follow a simple process of layering cut pieces, and it’s recommended to arrange them around Santa to decorate him.

Incorporate ornaments inspired by snowflakes as well to effectively convey the atmosphere of Christmas.

Angels and wreaths made of paper

[Craft Idea] Angels and Wreaths ~Craft~ (November/December) (Christmas Wreath) (Wall Decoration) (Childcare/Educational) (Senior Recreation) (Easy Craft) (Doily) (Creative)

Making angels and wreaths out of paper sounds like fun.

Folding an angel with white lace paper and cutting the hair with scissors seems interesting—it looks like you’d get angels full of personality.

If you also make a holly wreath with origami, it’ll feel perfectly Christmassy.

Attach the angel to the wreath, and you’ll have an adorable finished piece.

It would be wonderful to make them together with seniors, too.

Using the fingers is good exercise, and you can enjoy chatting while you work.

Once you display the finished pieces, your room will instantly be filled with the Christmas spirit.

Christmas Decorations with Paper Ring Garlands

[Ring Garland Craft Idea] Christmas Decorations with Ring Garlands (December Wall Decorations) (Activities for Seniors, Day Service, Occupational Therapy, Childcare, Origami, DIY)

This is about making a chain garland by turning long, thin strips of paper into loops and linking them together, giving it a Christmas feel.

Imagine connecting large loops with thin loops, arranging it so that only one side of each large loop is visible.

The motifs to create include Santa Claus, reindeer, and snowmen.

Each motif is completed in two segments—one for the face and one for the body—and then connected together.

Since you’ll make several long garlands, it’s recommended to vary the positions of the motifs on each one to achieve a more luxurious look.
