First, glue torn pieces of pink and white tissue paper onto the paper plate.
Then make a hole in the center of the plate and thread through a piece of yarn tied to a straw.
On the other end, thread a bead to act as a stopper and glue it in place.
Thread twine through the straw and attach the paper Hina dolls (made from construction paper) to the front.
Finally, decorate with yarn adorned with peach blossoms and circular pieces made from construction paper, and you’re done.
Simply changing the colors of the tissue paper or construction paper will give it a different look.

Let me show you how to make a tsurushi-bina that anyone can create easily.
First, accordion-fold a plain sheet of origami paper and fold it in half.
Then insert a patterned sheet of origami folded the same way and glue them together.
This will be the doll’s body.
Next, attach a face and small accessories made from construction paper, and you’re done.
You can also make other parts like peach blossoms and hishi-mochi.
Tie kite string to a base made from a tapioca (boba) straw, then glue on the hina dolls and decorations, and it’s complete! If cutting out the parts is difficult, prepare them in advance.
Hanging Hina ornament
These are hanging hina dolls you can enjoy as a tabletop display.
First, drill a hole in a wooden board to make the base, insert a rod, and cover it with fabric.
You can choose any hanging ornaments you like! Use craft bands to make round kusudama-style decorations, or glue chirimen crepe fabric onto thick paper cut into your favorite shapes to create custom charms.
Connect the finished ornaments with string and attach them to the umbrella-shaped base.
When threading the ornaments, it’s also recommended to add bells or beads.

A hanging ornament of yo-yo quilt made from fabric scraps
Let’s make a hanging decoration with a calm, soothing feel using fabric with traditional Japanese patterns.
You can make this with fabric scraps, so prepare plenty of your favorite prints.
After making a paper pattern and cutting the fabric, fold it in half with the right sides together and sew the edges.
Once you have a loop, lightly fold in each end to crease them.
Fold it in half and sew all the way around with large stitches, then pull the thread to form a round shape.
Gently shape it, then thread a cord through along with small fabric balls stuffed with cotton.
Make five of these sets to complete a vibrant yo-yo quilt hanging decoration.
Hanging Hina decorations made of felt
Let us introduce a warm, felt-crafted piece.
The parts you’ll make are the Ohinasama (Empress), the Odairisama (Emperor), plum blossoms, and yarn balls.
First, cut the felt into a crescent shape to create the base.
Then decorate it with the felt flowers and the yarn balls.
It might be nice to make the balls in pink, white, and green to resemble hina-arare rice puffs.
On the back, attach the hina dolls so that their faces are visible through the base.
Attach a gold cord to the base so it can be hung, and you’re done!
Hanging ornaments made from cherished clothing
A hanging ornament filled with memories, made from your child’s outgrown clothes.
Use pinking shears to cut the clothes into small pieces and attach them to spherical Styrofoam forms.
Incorporating a variety of colors makes it more vibrant, so keep color balance in mind as you work.
Thread the finished pieces and some beads onto string to create the hanging decoration.
You can find Styrofoam spheres in various sizes at 100-yen shops, so have a look.
You can make this not only from your child’s clothes but also from fabric scraps, so please use this as a reference.
