[For Seniors] Lovely Crafts Made with Tissue Paper: Ideas Collection

daffodil

Kimie Gangi’s spring wall display: Super easy “daffodil flowers made with two colors of tissue paper” — Daffodils wall decoration

Let’s make a daffodil using soft tissue paper.

Fold a white tissue paper sheet in half, then place an orange tissue paper sheet half its size on top.

Next, accordion-fold the stack into six sections, fold it in half, then cut the ends at a slant and staple the center.

After stapling, gently spread out the petals.

Once spread, separate the white and orange layers.

The orange section will be the flower’s center, so trim its edge straight.

For the leaves, cut colored construction paper into thin strips, wrap them around a pencil, and round off the tips.

[100-yen DIY ♡ Mother’s Day] How to Make a Tissue Paper Toy Poodle – Paper Flower

Poodles are adorable dogs known for their fluffy coats.

This time, let’s make a poodle that captures that soft, airy texture using tissue paper.

First, fold the tissue paper.

Then secure it with wire, and carefully open the layers one by one—this is the key step.

You’ll end up with a carnation.

Make several carnations, attach eyes and a nose, and your poodle is complete.

It makes a great gift for dog lovers and would be perfect for Mother’s Day, too.

It’s also nice to include a real carnation alongside it.

Pine, bamboo, and plum made from tissue paper

kimie gangi #shorts NEW New Year wall decoration: 'Tissue Paper Pine, Bamboo, and Plum' #tissuepaperart #fluffy #easyandbeautiful #DIY #walldecor #NewYeardecorations #NewYear

These are decorations of pine, bamboo, and plum made with tissue paper.

Each piece is simple, but arranged together like this, they make the wall look very festive.

The parts aren’t too difficult to make, either.

For the pine, fold the tissue paper in an accordion, fold it in half, cut off two corners, tie the crease with a pipe cleaner to form the branch, then make slits and fan it open to finish.

For the bamboo, fold the tissue paper into a rectangle, fold the left edge up to meet the top edge twice, unfold one layer back, twist the remaining right section, attach it to the folded part, and shape it.

This makes one bamboo leaf; make three and attach them together.

For the plum blossoms, accordion-fold the tissue paper, round both ends, and cut the center (along the folded side) into a triangle.

Then bundle it together with a wire along with the stamen piece made by cutting slits with shredding scissors, and peel apart the tissue layers one by one to shape the plum blossom.

Translucent Cosmos Sheet

Kimie Gangi’s tissue paper craft: “Let’s make a translucent cosmos sheet.”

Let’s make a cosmos craft with beautiful translucency using tissue paper.

Stack three colors of tissue paper and cut them into cosmos petal shapes.

Sort the cut pieces by color and assemble the cosmos flowers.

Use watered-down glue to attach the tissue-paper cosmos to an OPP sheet for bouquets.

This will create a semi-transparent cosmos sheet.

You can fold or roll the sheet to make a variety of creations.

It would be fun to think together with older adults about what to make.

Grape wall hanging decoration

Let's make a wall hanging decoration of grapes.🍇

When there’s a grape craft displayed indoors, some older adults may think, “Ah, autumn has arrived.” Here’s an easy grape wall decoration you can make with familiar materials.

Take a small rectangular piece of tissue paper for flowers and wrap a small balled-up piece of tissue inside so it forms a round shape.

Use colors that evoke grapes, like blue or purple.

Connect the crumpled tissue pieces to create a grape cluster.

Assemble paper straws to make a hanging base and attach the grapes.

Make leaves and a stem as well, and stick them on to complete the piece.

You can make it using only items from a 100-yen shop, so please use this as a reference and give it a try.

Noren Cosmos made with tissue paper

✄ [Flower Paper] Easy! String Curtain Made with Tissue Paper - Cosmos

Let me introduce a noren-style cosmos decoration made from tissue paper that will brighten up your room.

Prepare tissue paper, paper straws, string, and a tension rod, and let’s get started.

Fold and cut the tissue paper to create petal pieces.

By adding curves or cutting jagged edges, you can make more three-dimensional flowers.

Hang the string on the tension rod, then attach the petals and stamen parts to the string.

Form small loops in the string and thread the petals through as you go.

It’s also important to adjust the shapes so the petals don’t overlap.
