[For Seniors] Fall Wall Decoration Ideas

Cosmos in 2 Minutes! Easy Version

[Origami Cosmos] Easy: “Beautiful in 2 Minutes! How to Make 3D Cosmos” Wall Decorations, Preschool Crafts, Senior Recreation | How to make cosmos

Here’s a very easy way to make cosmos flowers using scrap materials.

Fold origami paper three times, then use pinking shears to make cuts on one side.

Snip between the petals with scissors, apply double-sided tape to the bottom, and roll a plastic bottle cap onto it to secure.

Stuff the inside of the bottle cap with crumpled yellow tissue paper, curl the petals, and you’re done.

If you’ve got lots of spare plastic bottle caps, why not take this opportunity to put them to use?

Frame of “Grapes and Cosmos”

“Grapes × Cosmos” September wall display with framed decorations

Autumn is a season with many delicious fruits, and among them, grapes come in many varieties.

And when it comes to symbolic autumn flowers, cosmos are a classic.

Here’s an idea: frame and display these two together.

For the grapes, to create a three-dimensional look, cut several half-circle pieces of origami paper to the same size and assemble them as if making half of a paper ball.

Stack the origami sheets and trace the template from above, then cut them all at once for efficiency.

For the cosmos, use pink, red, white, and yellow paper; simply cut petal shapes and layer a few together.

Try decorating the basket with grape leaves and tendrils as well.

Moon-viewing hanging decoration

[Care Recreation] Enjoy the Moon-Viewing with Hanging Decorations! [Seasonal Craft]

A hanging decoration perfect for autumn, featuring motifs related to the Harvest Moon! Make moon-viewing dumplings, rabbits, gentians (a representative autumn flower), and maple leaves out of origami or chiyogami paper, then tie them to strings.

If you stick a moon and pampas grass on the wall and hang the decoration in front of them, it creates depth and makes the display even more charming.

It’s also recommended to let seniors freely create autumn-themed motifs and hang them up together.

Be sure to make it as a group while enjoying lively conversations about autumn!

Moon-Viewing Wall Hanging Decoration

[Moon-Viewing Craft] Super Easy! How to Make a Moon-Viewing Wall Hanging with a Paper Plate [Ashitaba Channel]

This is a wall-hanging decoration that captures the moon-viewing scene—an essential event on long autumn nights.

It’s a simple craft made by using a paper plate with the center cut out as the base and adding decorations.

First, paint the paper plate black, then create a night sky by attaching sequins and a moon cut from yellow origami paper.

Next, place dango and rabbits—both staples of moon viewing—and attach a string for hanging to complete it.

It could be fun to think about how to color the night sky with the rising moon and what to include to convey the joy of moon viewing in your own way.

Grapes made with tissue paper

Kimie Gangi: Decorating the autumn wall with a “Fluffy Giant Grape Trellis.” #SeptemberWallDecor #OctoberWallDecor #Grapes #PaperFlowers #Easy #Kindergarten #Daycare #ElderlyCare #DIY

Let’s make a big bunch of grapes using soft tissue paper! The steps are simple, so it should be a fun autumn craft activity for a day service.

First, stack sheets of tissue paper that have been cut in half and fold them in an accordion.

Cut the folded stack into two, staple the center, and carefully open it up.

Make several of these tissue paper pieces, then glue them together in the shape of grapes to complete the fruit.

You can also cut branches, tendrils, and leaves from construction paper to decorate—so charming! If you make it with a large group, you can even take on a bigger project like a wall display.

Cosmos Plate Artwork Made with Tissue-Paper Collage

Kimie Gangi’s tissue paper collage “Cosmos Paper-Cut Decorative Plate.”

How about making cosmos flowers out of tissue paper and decorating a paper plate to create a cosmos picture plate? Fold the tissue paper into thirds, then fold a corner into a triangle to make a square.

Fold that up and cut out petal shapes—this lets you make three cosmos flowers at once.

Use your preferred colors of tissue paper, such as red, pink, or white.

Brush a layer of glue thinned with water onto the paper plate, then arrange the cosmos on top.

Brush more glue over the flowers to set them in place.

If you also decorate the rim of the paper plate with tissue paper in colors you like, let it dry thoroughly and you’re done.
