Graduation gifts for senior club members and teammates: A roundup of well-loved presents (31–40)
Surprise box
Let’s celebrate the graduating members with a surprise box that amazes when opened! At first glance it looks like an ordinary box, but once you open it, a delightful surprise awaits.
For example, when you lift the lid, a chain of candies keeps coming out, or you find another box inside with sweets and photos popping out from all around.
There are many other ideas too—like mechanisms that unfold like a pop-up book, leading you to nostalgic photos and treats as you interact with each feature.
It can be a bit of work to make, but try crafting it while picturing the happy faces of the seniors who’ve supported you.
Mason jar with a message
Mason jars are a type of tableware used for things like salads, but because many come in stylish designs, they’re also hugely popular as interior decor.
If you want to adapt one into a graduation-themed gift, a great idea is to fill it with small message cards rolled up and tied with ribbons, or to place mementos inside beads or colored sand and present it that way.
Overseas, it seems some people even roll up dollar bills and pack them inside as a graduation gift.
For Japanese people, that probably feels quite novel, doesn’t it?
candy bouquet
Here’s an easy candy bouquet you can make with items from the 100-yen shop! It’s sure to be a hit as a gift for seniors retiring from a club or for teammates, so give it a try.
Just attach 100-yen florals, balloons, and stick candies to wire or straws and arrange them into a bouquet! Customize the look by changing the combination of flowers, balloons, wrapping, and ribbon colors to match the recipient’s vibe.
You can also add a surprise touch by tucking in a message card.
Name tag
It could be fun to make name tags with bag webbing, right? As a graduation memento, try creating original tags with the names or initials of your close friends embroidered on them.
All you need are embroidery thread and bag webbing, so you can get everything at a 100-yen shop.
You can also change the colors of the embroidery thread and webbing, or add a small patch to make them pop.
They’re easy to make, so you can prepare them for a large group.
Be sure to give it a try!
Felt mascot
Let’s decorate the graduation ceremony venue with warm, handmade felt mascots! Create pieces inspired by the sport you’ve practiced, members’ faces, or their favorite things—feel free to use a variety of motifs.
If you attach a pin back or a string to the reverse side, you can give them as gifts after the ceremony.
By bonding the felt pieces together with fabric glue instead of sewing, even those who aren’t confident in sewing can make them easily—so give it a try!
