[Summer Vacation Crafts] Stylish Ideas for Girls

Disney-style doll furniture

[DIY] 100-Yen Store Makeover ♡ I Tried Recreating a Disney-Style Doll Furniture Accessory Case [Koujoucho]

How about making furniture sized to match your favorite dolls and plushies? It’s a two-in-one idea: furniture that’s perfect as a display spot for your beloved plush (like your bias/oshi), and that actually doubles as a case for storing small items and accessories.

Most of it can be made with materials from 100-yen shops, so plenty of people will probably want to give it a try.

The method is to wrap fabric around polystyrene foam and attach it as the base, so you could use the same materials to create more coordinated pieces—like beds and sofas—for a unified look!

Princess tiara made with pipe cleaners

[Party Craft] Easy with chenille stems! Princess tiara you can make with 100-yen shop items: cosplay & makeup. How to make a tiara and princess makeup. [Christmas / Halloween]

This is a cute pipe-cleaner tiara that girls who love sparkles and princesses will want to make on their own.

First, hold the pipe cleaner by bringing both ends together, and stretch the opposite side with your fingers.

Wrap the middle around a pen once and remove it, then use the pen to help form a heart shape.

Layer another pipe cleaner to create a gap, and twist the overlapping parts to join them.

Twist the ends of the heart-shaped pipe cleaner to refine the shape, connect it to the other pipe cleaner, and your adorable tiara is complete.

The best part is you only need three 30 cm pipe cleaners and a thin pen—all available at a 100-yen shop!

Box of Light

[Simple Craft 075] Light Box 2 – A Decorative Piece for the Windowsill (Light Box)

Would you like to make a light box with a beautiful appearance? All you need are a tissue box, thermal aluminum sheet, and a clear file folder.

First, cut out the tissue box.

Next, cut the thermal aluminum sheet into thin strips, roll them up, and pack them inside the box.

Finally, color the clear file, attach it to the box, and close it up to finish.

It won’t light up on its own, but when sunlight hits it, it shines like stained glass.

Try finishing it with colors and patterns that match your room’s design.

Cute crafts in the kitchen

Great for free craft time too! 'Cute Crafts in the Kitchen for Elementary School Kids' (Gakken) – children, parents and kids, DIY, at-home activities

Do you know the book “Cute Crafts in the Kitchen for Elementary School Students,” published by Gakken? It’s packed with fun craft ideas, including many that would be perfect for summer vacation projects and crafts.

Let me introduce one from the book: the “Paper Dome Cup.” The simple process is to coat a water balloon with glue, wrap it with Japanese paper or tissue paper, and once it’s dry, pop the balloon.

It doesn’t take much time, so it’s recommended even for those who are short on time.

A handy small-item case craft using an empty tissue box

Here are some ideas for making a small accessory case that lets you showcase your individuality.

The process has three main steps.

First, remove the plastic from the opening.

If you push as you apply force, it will come off cleanly.

Next, make slits at the key points and shape it into a small container.

Finally, add decorations as you like to finish.

Try making your own unique case by pasting origami paper or adding stickers.

Since you decide the design yourself, you’ll likely feel even more attached to it.
