You can easily make this using simple materials from a 100-yen shop.

First, roughly cut colored construction paper in your favorite colors.

Place a star-shaped template on top of parchment paper and secure it with tape.

Peel off the star together with the tape, then freely stick on the small pieces of the cut paper.

Add another layer of tape over the top, and cut along the star shape with scissors.

Finally, punch a hole and thread a string through it to complete the star ornament.

Using cellophane makes it translucent and more festive in the light, perfect for Christmas trees or wall decorations.

It’s a simple yet eye-catching craft that you can enjoy making with children.

Disney handmade garland

Let’s try making original Disney garlands.

It seems the garlands themselves are made by taking official coloring pages and editing them with an app.

Laminate the garlands, cut them out, and hang them on a string, and you’ll have an adorable garland! If you want the design to shine even more, apply a holographic sheet on top of the lamination.

Designing in Christmas colors or adding ribbons and bells to the garland will make it an even more fitting wall decoration for December!

♬ Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree – Brenda Lee

Crafts made using familiar materials and scrap are a great experience for both children and adults.

Instead of buying something new, using items that would otherwise be thrown away can also contribute to the SDGs.

The items you’ll need are: a toilet paper roll, construction paper cut into parts, glue, double-sided tape or paste, red pom-poms, a black pen, and rubber bands.

When attaching the pom-poms, it’s a good idea to secure them with rubber bands while they dry.

Fits perfectly on the wall! Making Olaf’s footprints

Olaf, the unique and lovable character from Disney’s Frozen.

Here’s a wall decoration idea inspired by Olaf: use an upside-down stamp of a white footprint to represent Olaf’s body, then finish it by attaching paper cutouts for his face, hair, and feet.

The little snowmen around him are adorable, too! The big, round eyes—simple yet striking—somehow bring Baymax to mind.

Add stars and a tree to make the wall décor even more charming, and it could be fun to sneak a hidden Baymax in there like a spot-the-difference game!

Stylish snowflake

December Wall Decorations: “Snowflakes” — Stylish Handmade Christmas Ornaments Easily Made with Templates

Let’s make delicate yet eye-catching snowflakes.

You’ll need two sheets of white drawing paper (size 16-cut), a template, scissors, glue, a stapler, and a ruler.

You can also use copy paper or origami paper, but using drawing paper will give you larger, sturdier snowflakes! For variations, try adding color with paint thinned generously with water, or decorate with sparkling rhinestone stickers.

Hope this helps you enjoy the run-up to Christmas!

Fluffy tissue paper Christmas tree

Kimie Gangi December wall decoration: fluffy tissue-paper Christmas tree, reusing cut-off scraps.

When making crafts with tissue paper, you sometimes end up with leftover scraps, right? This time, here’s an idea for making a Christmas tree using those leftover pieces.

The key is to put some liquid glue on your palm and roll the tissue paper into little balls! Try adjusting the amount of glue as you go.

When creating the base with construction paper, it’s best to cut it to fit the size of the place where you want to display it.

Using holographic tape or sparkly materials will give it a bright, festive finish!

Cute yarn paper plate decoration

[Preschool Craft] Perfect for Making Christmas Decorations! Yarn Trees

Here’s an idea for an easy, seasonal decoration.

First, prepare a paper plate and paint it navy blue to create the base.

Wrap some clear tape around the tip of green yarn, then punch holes in the plate in the shape of a Christmas tree.

Thread the yarn through the holes, and the outline of the tree will gradually appear.

Once the shape looks right, attach decorative stickers and a star ornament to complete the tree.

You can add white round stickers around it to create a snowy atmosphere.

Finally, punch a hole at the top and tie a ribbon, and your cute decoration is finished.

With color and decoration tweaks, it’s a fun winter craft to enjoy with children.
