ribbon
Making a ribbon out of origami is just so cute, isn’t it? Simply fold the paper into thirds and tuck both ends inward, and you’ll have a lovely ribbon in no time! Use colorful paper and it will instantly brighten up your room.
It’s great for decorating gifts and makes a perfect accent for greeting cards, too.
If you make them together as a parent and child, it’s sure to become a fun memory.
Also works as a finger puppet! Shima-enaga
The long-tailed tit, known as the “snow fairy,” lives in Hokkaido.
Its plush-like round shape and beady eyes are truly adorable.
This is an origami piece inspired by that bird.
Amazingly, it can also be used as a finger puppet—an idea kids will love.
First, fold the origami paper into a triangle, then fold the left and right corners inward so they overlap at the center.
Flip the paper top to bottom, then fold the left and right corners back to form the wings.
Fold down the top corner, which becomes the head, to round it out, and tuck the bottom triangle inward to finish.
Use a pen to draw the wing patterns and face as the final touch.
Fuzzy knit pouch
Recommended even for first-time crafters! Here are some ideas for a fluffy yarn pouch.
As the weather gets chilly, items made with fuzzy textures start to look even cuter, don’t they? This time, why not try making an easy, fluffy pouch that’s perfect for beginners at handcrafts? All you need are a non-slip mat, chunky yarn, scissors, and a magnetic button.
You can find all the materials at a 100-yen shop, so it’s great that you can pick them up easily whenever you feel like giving it a try!
Best friends rabbits
The combination of hearts and rabbits is so cute! Here are some ideas for friendly rabbits.
You might have a chance to make rabbit crafts for the autumn moon-viewing event.
These heart-and-rabbit ideas are perfect for that.
It would also be lovely to layer this piece and stick it inside a full moon made from yellow origami.
Choose any colors you like for the origami.
Colored paper is great, but using white origami might be adorable too.
Be sure to give it a try!
One Piece
Let’s make a cute one-piece dress using just one sheet of origami! Prepare a sheet of your favorite origami paper.
As you fold, there are a few small, detailed steps, but you’ll start to recognize parts like the skirt and sleeves as they take shape, making it fun to fold! You can freely adjust the skirt size with the folding angles: add a slight angle for a flared, fluffy hem, or a larger angle for a tight, fitted dress.
Try making different styles of dresses! Solid-colored origami is adorable, but using patterned or foil origami looks wonderful too!
Angel Heart
Angel Hearts may look difficult at first glance, but the steps are surprisingly simple.
First, fold the origami paper twice to make a square.
After creasing, open it with the white side facing up.
Fold the top and bottom edges to meet the center crease, then flip it over and fold both bottom corners up to the center of the top edge to form triangles.
Leave the white section at the bottom as it will become the wings.
Turn the paper over and fold the top edge down about 1 centimeter.
Open the colored section in the center of the folded-down part and squash it into a triangle.
Fold the two top corners of the squashed section into triangles, and your heart is complete.
Finally, fold the corners of the wings you left earlier into triangles to finish.
chain mail bracelet
As the name suggests, here’s a bracelet made with chain stitch that looks like a chain.
It’s created by threading your favorite beads onto lace thread and connecting them with chain stitches using a crochet hook.
The steps are simple, so even lower elementary school children can make it.
Focus, and skillfully move your hands and fingers.
The chain stitch is a fundamental crochet technique.
This project is perfect for kids who want to start learning to crochet.
Wearing the finished bracelet on your wrist will make it even more satisfying.
