lampshade
Here’s a lampshade idea that will stylishly brighten up your room.
A lampshade is what you’d call the “shade” for a light.
The materials you’ll need are a body towel, a balloon, and an LED bulb.
First, inflate the balloon.
Then cut the body towel and attach it so that it covers the balloon.
Be sure to leave the bottom part open.
After that, pop the balloon and you’re done.
When you place a light inside the dome-shaped body towel, it will illuminate your room with a dreamy, magical ambiance.

How to make a watermelon bar squishy
Looks just like a real ice pop!? Juicy to the eye and satisfyingly squishy to the touch, the “Watermelon Bar Squishy” is an adorable handmade craft perfect for summer.
It’s an easy yet highly polished project, especially recommended for upper-grade girls.
Start with a sponge from the 100-yen shop and cut it into the shape of a watermelon ice bar.
Carefully paint a red–green–white gradient with acrylic paints.
Recreate the seeds realistically using black paint or clay.
A wooden stick works perfectly for the ice pop handle.
People are sure to say, “That looks delicious!” It’s cute to look at and fun to touch—give this delightful summer science/craft project a try!
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.
[Pipe-Cleaner Craft] Flower Memo Stand

Let’s make a flower memo stand using colorful chenille stems (pipe cleaners) you can find at 100-yen shops.
Basically, form loops with the pipe cleaners to create petals, and twist and lengthen them to make the stem.
Since this is a memo stand, also make a card holder in the same way with pipe cleaners.
Once each part is finished, insert them into a melamine sponge and wrap it with a paper napkin.
Put that into a small paper cup and you’re done! Try making it in your favorite colors.
Sweets Deco
How about trying your hand at making cute-looking sweets-themed deco crafts during the summer break using only items from the 100-yen shop? A nice bonus is that you can get everything—paper cups, air-dry clay, and decoration parts—at the 100-yen store! The whipped cream base for the decorations is made by mixing wood glue into the clay.
You can also turn the glue into a decorative sauce by mixing in paint! Combine sauces and parts in your favorite colors to create sweets bursting with originality.
Add memo-stand parts and other fittings to instantly boost practicality—give it a try!
Experimenting with resin?!
If you want to try your hand at making things with resin, why not purchase a resin craft kit? It comes with all the basic materials and tools, so you can start creating right away.
Deciding what shape to make and which parts to decorate with—and bringing your ideas to life—is a lot of fun.
While resin is often used for crafts, you can also do experiments, such as comparing how quickly different resin liquids cure! If it’s your first time, please work together with a parent or guardian.
Plastic bottle wind chime
Here’s an idea for an easy wind chime you can make with a plastic bottle.
Cut the bottle in half across the middle and make a hole in the center of the bottom piece.
Thread a string through the hole, attaching a strip of paper (tanzaku) and a bell to it.
Decorate the bottle, and you’re done.
Pens, nail polish, and decorative parts work well for embellishment.
To keep the string from slipping out, tie a short piece of a toothpick along the string as a stopper.
By taking advantage of the bottle’s translucence, you’ll get a cool, refreshing look.
If you’re looking for a summery craft idea, give this a try.
