[For Seniors] Easy Felt Craft: Warm and Cozy Projects

No-sew Hina dolls

[Super Easy] No-sew Hina Dolls #dayservice #daycare #outpatientrehab #caregiving #elderly #crafts

Here’s how to make no-sew Hina dolls.

Prepare felt, wooden beads, and construction paper, and give it a try.

Cut the felt according to the template and glue together the kimono for the male and female dolls.

If you slightly offset the felt pieces as you glue them, the kimono will look neat when wrapped into shape.

Draw hair on the wooden beads, then glue them onto the kimonos to assemble the heads and bodies.

For the male doll, make an eboshi (cap) from construction paper and attach it to the head, then add the shaku (ritual scepter) to finish.

For the female doll, place the crown and give her a fan to complete.

It’s a perfect craft for practicing fine motor skills, so be sure to give it a try!

No-sew cherry blossom corsage

[No-Sew] Make a Cherry Blossom Corsage with Felt / Entrance Ceremony / How to Make a Felt Cherry Blossom Corsage

Introducing a cherry blossom corsage that’s perfect for ceremonies like entrance ceremonies.

Although it looks glamorous, you can make it without using a needle and thread.

What you’ll need: pink and light green felt, flower stamens, wire, brown floral tape, a corsage pin, and ribbon.

For the flower, cut the felt into a circle and make five slits to divide it into equal parts.

Round the corners and cut the tips into a jagged shape.

Wrap the stamens onto the wire, thread the felt on, and secure it with glue.

Use the light green felt to make the calyx, then wrap and secure everything with tape along the wire.

Make several of the same flower and bundle them together with tape.

Attach a corsage pin to the stem, secure it again with tape, and finish by wrapping a ribbon.

There are no complicated steps, so you can proceed with confidence.

Give it a try as a bit of finger exercise, too.

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.
