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

Simple Santa Claus

Making a December calendar ⭐

Christmas has become firmly established in Japan.

In fact, until 1947, December 25 was a national holiday because it was the anniversary of Emperor Taishō’s death.

Seniors will remember that.

Speaking of Christmas, Santa Claus comes to mind.

With just red triangular paper, you can make something that already looks like Santa, so even if you’re not particularly skilled at crafts, don’t worry.

Use cotton for the beard and beige-colored paper for the face.

Giving him a cane or something might be stylish! A hat and scarf are great too—even a slightly dapper Santa is OK.

Stained glass-style CD case

Day service recreation: A stained-glass-style craft using CD cases

Unneeded CD cases transform into stained glass! Hold a drawing on paper against the outside of the case and trace it from the inside with a black permanent marker.

Once you’ve finished tracing, color it in with your favorite shades of permanent markers.

Next, crumple a sheet of aluminum foil to create wrinkles, fit it inside the case, close the lid, and trim off any excess.

You’ll have a stained-glass-style decoration.

The aluminum foil reflects light just right, creating a brighter, more cheerful atmosphere indoors!

Christmas tree made with tissue paper

Kimie Gangi tissue paper decorated with balls, cute bumpy Christmas tree #DecemberWallDecor #ChristmasDecorations #Handmade #DIY

If you want to create a fluffy, textured look for a Christmas tree, using tissue paper is recommended! Prepare a triangular base, then randomly paste small pieces of green tissue paper onto it.

Rather than neatly aligning them with the edges, it’s better to let some pieces stick out and place them irregularly.

Once the tree’s foliage is done, it’s time to decorate! Try rolling and compressing tissue paper in various colors into ball shapes and stick them on as ornaments.

You can use the crumpled pieces as they are, or add glitter—either works! Combine them with ribbons and other decorations to create your own original tree.

The process is very simple and offers lots of freedom, so it’s easy for older adults to enjoy as well.

Fluffy tissue-paper poinsettia wall decoration

Kimie Gangi December wall decoration: “Fluffy Poinsettia” — A hearty poinsettia decoration

Let’s softly craft a poinsettia—an essential for Christmas—using tissue paper.

Fold the tissue paper in an accordion (screen-fold) style, then fold it in half, secure the center, cut it, and gently open it while adding creases to shape the leaves.

Make these pieces with both red and green tissue paper, layer and glue them together, and place yellow in the center to finish.

The angle of each leaf is also important; because they spread softly in various directions, the piece gains a strong three-dimensional presence.

It would look beautiful not only as a wall decoration but also as a tabletop ornament.

Simple paper poinsettia decoration

[Christmas] Easy paper poinsettia decoration you can make right away (with voice commentary) – Easy paper Christmas Poinsettia decoration

Let’s make a poinsettia—the plant that adds festive flair to Christmas—using construction paper.

Pay attention to the size of each part and how you layer them; that’s the key to creating a three-dimensional look.

Cut the red paper into a leaf shape that spreads in four directions, then stack two identical pieces to create a shape that spreads in eight directions.

Next, cut the green paper into leaves larger than the red ones, and glue the red piece on top of the green to complete the poinsettia.

It has a three-dimensional feel, yet the paper base makes it easy to incorporate into all kinds of decorations.

Stained glass with parchment paper

Let’s use baking paper to make beautiful wall decorations that look like stained glass! Prepare two black construction paper frames for each design—stars, bells, snowflakes, and other Christmas-themed images—by cutting out the centers so only the outlines remain.

Attach baking paper to one of the frames, then layer tissue paper in various colors on top.

We recommend tearing the tissue paper into smaller pieces and overlapping a few colors.

Once you’ve added as much tissue paper as you like, attach the second frame on top so that the baking paper and tissue paper are sandwiched between the two frames.

And you’re done! Make lots of them to create a lively, festive display.

Christmas decorations, cute wreath

(Paper craft) Christmas decorations: How to make a cute wreath [DIY]

There’s a classic Christmas decoration: the wreath.

Believe it or not, you can make one using nothing but construction paper.

The structure is simple.

First, prepare red and green construction paper.

Cut them into rectangles and make slits.

Finally, stack the two sheets, wrap them around something cylindrical, and you’re done.

Because it’s three-dimensional, it stands out nicely when hung on a door or wall.

You can also add a ribbon or other accents to finish it off beautifully.

Try this idea to easily get into the Christmas spirit.
