In this article, we introduce recommended “sakura craft” ideas for those looking for inspiration.

When you think of spring, many older adults probably picture cherry blossoms.

While many people look forward to cherry-blossom viewing, some have fewer opportunities to go out as they get older.

We hope even those individuals can feel the spring season while spending time in their rooms.

This time, we’ve gathered a range of ideas—from practical small items to decorations you can simply enjoy displaying.

There are also easy projects, like making decorations by dabbing with a sponge (tampon technique) and cutting and pasting illustrations.

Please use these ideas as a reference!

How about a cherry blossom candy holder as a spring origami project? Inspired by sakura petals, you can place treats in each of the five petals.

It’s a practical piece of origami, so it’s nice that you can actually use it after making it! To make it, create each petal part using five sheets of origami paper, then simply glue them together at the end.

Spring-themed origami not only lets you enjoy the season, but can also be effective for finger rehabilitation and dementia prevention.

Why not try incorporating it into craft activities at your day service?
