Simple and cute summer project crafts! A collection of ideas for girls that will make you want to create

Bead and pipe cleaner ideas

Thread beads onto pipe cleaners to make all kinds of little accessories.

First curl one end of the pipe cleaner, then thread on a bead.

Insert the curled tip into the bead’s hole, pull the other side to lock it in place, and after that just add your favorite beads and form a loop.

Make it larger for a bracelet, or use flower-shaped beads to create a flower crown for a doll.

You can also use them for cable ties, tiny bottle decorations, and many other situations.

Because you’re using pipe cleaners, the beads don’t slip off easily after threading, making this an easy activity for toddlers and lower-grade elementary school children.

Making felt flowers

Why not try making flowers that never wilt using felt and pipe cleaners? It’s very easy and cute.

First, cut petals out of felt.

Slightly fold the base of each petal and snip along the crease—this is where you’ll thread the pipe cleaner later.

Cut a light green pipe cleaner into three 4 cm pieces.

Lay two pieces in an X shape, then place the third straight across and twist to form the stamen.

Wrap a green pipe cleaner around to make the stem, and wrap a yellow pipe cleaner around the tip of the stamen to represent the pollen.

Finally, thread the petals onto the stem and glue them in place to finish.

Try making your favorite flowers!

A box for doing hair styling

@n.annlee321

Perfect for practicing ribbon bows, braids, and using hair ties 🥰🎀#HandmadeToys#100-yen-shop#100-yen shop DIYParentingChildcareChildcareEducational#EducationalToysbraidRibbon bow

Why not make a hairstyling box using a large empty box, felt, and yarn? It’s a great craft for kids who love tying or braiding doll hair.

First, cut out parts like the face, eyes, and mouth from felt, and stick them onto the box lid.

As if making a pom-pom, wrap yarn around cardboard, tie it at one point, then cut the looped ends.

Punch holes in the top of the face area on the box, thread the tied yarn through, and attach the “hair” around the face.

Make the side sections and bangs separately.

Also, secure the side hair at the upper left and right sides of the face.

Finally, decorate as you like with ribbons and more, and you’re done! Use the yarn as hair and enjoy styling it.

whipped resin

@chat_ange

A craft project for summer break that even lower-grade kids can make… Instead of shaker resin, it’s whip resin. I hope it catches on as a new term! I tried applying the trendy whip deco to a shaker resin piece. I haven’t seen this anywhere else, so maybe it’s a first?! 🤣 I’m thinking it might be easier than regular shaker resin—what do you think? It’s cute as is, but once the whip dries, it could be turned into a keychain too. I’ll upload a video when I make another one. If you still haven’t made your summer break project yet, I hope this helps as a reference! 😆Summer Vacation Craft#Summer vacation homeworkFree craftUse it freely for crafts.#WhippedResin#HowToMakeShakerResinShaker resinResin#ResinHandmade#ResinWork

We’ll show you how to make whipped resin that feels just like making sweets.

First, let’s create the base with resin.

Pour resin into a mold and cure it.

You can make the color however you like.

Once the base is ready, add the deco “whip,” then place decorative parts on top to embellish it.

When the whip hardens, it’s done! Using store-bought decorative parts is easy, but if you’d like to try making more with resin, take this opportunity to handcraft the parts as well.

Let’s make transparent eggs

Summer science project: Make transparent eggs using vinegar [Research]

A surprising science project: can a raw egg become transparent? The materials are simple—an egg, a cup that fits the egg, vinegar, and a paper towel.

Put the egg in the cup and pour in vinegar.

Cover the top with a paper towel and leave it for about two days.

You’ll find the hard shell has disappeared! The egg is also slightly bigger, squishy, and bouncy when placed on a desk.

It’s easy enough for first graders in elementary school.

By the way, do not eat the egg used in the experiment!

Sparkly Piggy Bank

[Sparkly Coin Bank] Like it's sprinkled with gems. Perfect for a summer vacation craft! It’s a craft using a plastic bottle. Fun Coin Bank Ideas

Cut a slot for inserting coins, and then all that’s left is to decorate it with beads and more! Make it as cute, lavish, and uniquely yours as you like.

If you make use of the lines already on the plastic bottle, your decorations won’t end up looking messy.

The cap area stands out the most, so it’s worth giving it special attention!

Handmade croissant craft

@n.annlee321

Pretty hard to do in real life, huh? 🥹#ElementarySchoolMomSummer Vacation CraftParentingChildcareHandmade#100-yen shop DIY#100-yen-shop

♬ Touch – KATSEYE

Croissants, whose toasty aroma practically comes through just by looking at them, are a popular bread across generations.

Let’s recreate that delicious croissant appearance using materials you can get at a 100-yen shop.

For the base, cut a puzzle mat into three different sizes, then glue them together while creating steps.

Once the base is complete, apply double-sided tape across the entire surface and wrap brown yarn around it to mimic the look of a croissant.

Since the layered dough and variations in browning are part of a croissant’s appeal, experiment with how you wrap the yarn and also use paint to reproduce these details effectively.
