[Summer Vacation Crafts] Stylish Ideas for Girls (41–50)
Flower wooden clips
Let’s make cute floral wooden clips.
We’ll create cherry blossom petals using paper punched out with a round punch.
Since it’s delicate work, use fine-tipped craft pliers to fold the pieces.
Connect five petals to form a cherry blossom.
Disassemble the wooden clip, paint it with acrylic paint or similar, let it dry, and reassemble it.
Then attach the cherry blossom you made with glue.
Because the work is a bit detailed, it’s suitable for upper elementary school students.
Paper-cup hat
How about trying to make a tiny hat using a paper cup? Cut off the rim (the drinking edge) of the cup, then make thin, evenly spaced slits.
Crease each strip diagonally about halfway down, and from there, start folding and weaving them so they overlap with the neighboring strips.
It might seem a bit tricky at first, but once you get used to it, you’ll be fine—and it becomes fun as you go.
Tuck in the ends to finish the weave, then decorate with ribbon or felt.
If you use a craft-style paper cup, you can make a straw hat.
3 simple coasters
How about making coasters as a summer vacation craft? Here, we’ll introduce three methods.
The first is a coaster made by arranging tiles on top of paper clay.
The second is a coaster made by lining up beads and melting them in the microwave.
The third is a summery coaster that expresses a seasonal scene by placing shells, sequins, and stickers in resin.
They’re all easy to make, so give them a try.
You can buy most of the materials at 100-yen shops.
Tissue box bag
A cute, rounded-rectangle shoulder bag—believe it or not, it’s made from an empty tissue box! It’s very easy to make.
Leave the bottom of the empty box attached, and cut a slit so the box can open cleanly in half.
On one side, cut away everything except the bottom and one side wall.
Use the piece you cut off to cover the tissue-dispensing opening.
The key is not to seal it completely.
This opening will hold the tab that acts as the bag’s clasp, keeping the lid firmly shut.
Punch holes, thread a cord for the strap, and decorate in your favorite colors to finish.
Let’s make gemstone soap
Girls are often drawn to things that sparkle like gemstones, aren’t they? Let’s make soap that looks just like jewels.
It’s perfect for a summer vacation craft project, and it would make a delightful gift too.
Put glycerin and colored soap for tinting into a paper cup, melt it in the microwave, let it harden as is, then cut the corners to resemble a gemstone—and you’re done! You can also enjoy various customizations, like mixing several colors, shaping it to look like a raw crystal, or using silicone molds to make lots of identical pieces.
stone art
Stone art is a great idea for a summer vacation research or craft project.
If you collect stones while playing by the river or camping, try turning them into an art piece! Simply arrange twigs and stones on a frame however you like, and fix them in place with an adhesive suitable for stones.
Choosing natural materials to pair with the stones gives it a stylish look.
Your child’s free imagination will likely result in a delightful work of art.
It’s also perfect for making memories together, so be sure to enjoy crafting as a parent-child activity over summer vacation.
Glue stick keychain
https://www.tiktok.com/@salt_kosodate/video/7472353111215000840Some of you may have used a hot glue gun for bonding.
The glue sticks used in glue guns, however, aren’t just for sticking things together.
Try cutting the glue sticks into small pieces and placing them in an oven-safe mold.
Heat them in a toaster oven, then remove them once the glue has cooled and hardened.
You’ll have a cute charm that can also be used as a keychain.
Attach hardware and a chain to the charm to make it into a keychain.
If you add glitter to the mold before putting in the glue sticks, it will turn out sparkly and adorable.
Since you can make many at once, why not try making them as gifts for your friends?
