Album
Receiving an album filled with cherished photos and keepsake cards is enough to make anyone happy.
Why not handcraft such a heartfelt album and give it as a gift? Use a store-bought photo album as the base, then decorate it with your own ideas and sense of style.
Try embellishing it with pretty patterned paper, colored tape, stickers, and colorful pens.
Give a warm, heartfelt present that will mark important milestones like kindergarten or school graduation.
medal
These are medals made with origami.
You can use any color of paper, but gold or silver might make them look more like real medals.
Each one takes about 10 minutes to make, so try making a bunch and give them to kids as handmade gifts.
You could put a photo in the center of the finished medal, or add drawings or text.
If you punch a small hole in one spot and thread a string through, you can wear it around the neck—highly recommended.
There are some delicate steps, so if you’re good with your hands, definitely give it a try!
Handmade magnet
Let’s try making handy homemade magnets for posting school worksheets, photos with friends, letters, and more.
Place a magnet into a silicone mold, add a glue stick in your favorite color, and warm it in the microwave.
Once the stick hardens, remove it and attach beads or other decorations to the side without the magnet—done! You can also make DIY magnets from items like fabric-covered buttons or acrylic keychains, so try creating them in whatever way you like.
pen holder
Introducing a paper-clay pen holder you can keep on your desk all the time.
It’s very easy to make.
There are no difficult steps, so even small children can enjoy making it.
Prepare some paper clay, your favorite glass bottle or container, and decorations like beads, game pieces, or marbles.
Press the paper clay onto the bottle, then simply decorate with your chosen parts.
Once it’s dry, it’s done.
It’s also a great idea to make one as a memento from preschool or kindergarten.
Flower pocket
Something infants can make! Here’s an idea for a flower pocket.
In addition to a cute flower design, it includes a pocket made from a paper plate.
Try slipping in a letter, message card, or photo and giving it as a gift to parents.
You’ll need construction paper, round stickers, patterned origami paper, ribbon, tissue paper for flowers, a paper plate, and paint.
After cutting the construction paper into a flower shape, add patterns with finger stamping.
Children in preschool classes can also paint with brushes in any colors they like.
It’s sure to become a gift that shows each child’s individuality.
