Stone painting
During summer vacation, there are times when you go out with your family to rivers or mountains, right? When you do, why not try picking up stones and making art with them? Of course, stones you’ve collected from around your neighborhood are fine, too.
First, paint the stones you’ve prepared with white acrylic paint.
This small extra step will help your work turn out beautifully.
Then, use acrylic paints to create animals, plants, and more by adding color.
If you also use items like pipe cleaners or empty cans, you can make pieces that look very realistic.
Please use this as a reference and give it a try!
Let’s make a cardboard pochette
Here’s an introduction to making a pochette using cardboard.
Do you have cardboard boxes at home from parcel deliveries or from purchases at the supermarket? If you have some on hand, you can make a pochette simply by cutting it into shape, folding it, and assembling it.
Cardboard has lines where the inside is hollow.
The key is to keep those lines in mind when you cut.
If you want to create curves in your cardboard parts, cut across those lines.
Doing so will expand your creative possibilities.
Designing the pochette itself is sure to be an enjoyable time, too.
A one-of-a-kind toy clock in the world
The idea is to make a clock using a clock movement and a board, then attach various toys to it.
You can get a clock movement at a 100-yen shop or a handmade goods store, and you can buy the board for the clock face at a home improvement store.
First, draw diagonal lines on the board to find the center point, and mark where to drill the hole for the movement.
Next, use a protractor to decide where to place the numbers on the clock.
After drilling the hole and painting if you like, it’s time to decorate the face.
Use a hot glue gun to attach the toys however you like.
Finally, secure the clock movement in the hole, and you’re done.
Arrange your favorite toys with style and create a wonderful clock!
disposable chopstick coaster
Introducing a chopstick coaster that lets you feel the warmth of wood.
Gather disposable chopsticks, glue, sanding sealer, varnish, and a brush, and let’s get started.
Glue chopsticks around the base board.
If you score the chopsticks with a utility knife before splitting them, they’ll break cleanly.
Lightly sand the tips to round them off.
Continue gluing the chopsticks from the outside toward the inside.
Adjust the size of the chopsticks as you go, fitting them while slightly changing the angle.
Brush on varnish and let it dry, and you’re done.
Give it a try!
Accessory box made from an empty box
Some children who love fashion may have lots of charms for rings or clothes, right? Since they can easily get lost, it’s handy to have a box that can store them all together.
Here’s an accessory box that’s practical too.
You can make it with an empty box you already have at home.
Add thickness by attaching pieces cut from a quilted surface to the lid and the sides of the box.
The soft, cushioned thickness gives it a luxurious feel, turning it into a proper jewelry box.
If you roll up some felt fabric and place it inside the box, you can store rings neatly.
The finished product won’t look like it was made from an empty box, so give it a try for inspiration!
