I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”
20 years of experience as a nursery teacher / kindergarten teacherhiyoko sensei
I’m Hiyoko-sensei, a former nursery school teacher from Hyogo Prefecture. Ever since I was five, my dream was to become a childcare worker, and before I knew it, 20 years had passed since I achieved that dream. Through singing and playing with the children, I kept working with the spirit of someone in their twenties, even as I increasingly felt my physical limits year by year (haha). From here on, I’d like to share helpful information carefully and thoughtfully, drawing on my on-site experience.

On this special milestone of graduation, why not create a one-of-a-kind diploma? An original certificate that carries your congratulations and gratitude will become an irreplaceable treasure for the recipient.

A handmade diploma, brimming with individuality, conveys the giver’s feelings directly.

Still, when it comes time to make one, many people may struggle to decide on a design.

In this article, we’ll introduce a wide range of handmade diploma ideas.

How about having the teachers write a personal message to each child on their graduation certificate? As you look back on the years you spent together, try writing with heart about what the children worked hard on, how they grew, and the fun memories or unforgettable moments you shared.

A final message from a beloved teacher will surely become a treasure for the children.

Please create a wonderful graduation certificate that lets them feel the teachers’ love in full when they receive it.

Wooden commendation plaque

A graduation certificate that lets you feel the warmth of wood will blend naturally into your home’s interior.

Have you ever wanted to proudly display your diploma as proof of your achievement, but given up because it didn’t suit your room’s atmosphere? A wooden graduation certificate is stylish enough that you’ll actually want to put it in the most visible spot—highly recommended.

If you’re making a wooden diploma, we suggest trying wood-burning art.

It’s a technique where you use a heat pen to scorch the wood and create text and illustrations.

Once you get used to handling the heat pen, you can easily enjoy making art.

If you prefer an even simpler approach, you can spray on a waterproof coating and write with an oil-based marker, or order a professional, more polished version from a vendor!
