[Punch needle] Embroidery on a bag

[Punch Needle] 3D embroidery directly on a jute bag! Sun-tanned Snoopy makes it cuter and more summery ↑✨🌴 / Tutorial video

How about embroidering an original design on a jute bag—available even at 100-yen shops—using a punch needle? A small accent is fine, or you can embroider a large design in the center.

You can get the tools and materials for punch needle at a 100-yen shop, and since you just keep punching as you go, it’s great for beginners to try.

Once you’ve drawn your outline and finished the embroidery, cut the loops, then trim the pile to your preferred length, and you’re done.

Fluid art

[acrylic painting] How to paint fluid art / Fluid art / blue / Differences between acrylic gouache and acrylic paint / how to paint / artwork / Parents are like the ocean to their children

Fluid art is an art genre that emphasizes fluidity.

By mixing acrylic paint with liquid laundry starch (or glue) and using a hair dryer or your breath to guide the colored liquid across the canvas, you create the work.

Because the final form is left to the flow of the liquid, it often results in wonderfully unpredictable pieces.

You mix your favorite paint colors with laundry glue and pour them onto the canvas, making it a fast-paced art style.

Most of the materials can be found at 100-yen shops.

With freeform experimentation—creating fine patterns or blowing air—you can craft your own unique art and display a piece that suits your space.

cloth slippers

A fun-to-knit, soft and comfortable fabric slipper collection

These are fabric slippers with a colorful, soft look, made by braiding long, rolled strips of cloth.

Tie four vinyl cords together at one end, and use those four cords as guides while you braid the long cloth strips.

Avoid leaving gaps in the fabric and make sure the guide cords don’t show—this will result in a sturdier finish.

Once the base is braided, use a different fabric to add the arch section and decorations to complete the slippers.

It’s a craft that requires careful fine-tuning—firming up some parts of the fabric and keeping other parts looser to match the foot—so balance is key.

Tsumami-zaiku

[Tsumami Zaiku] How to Make Round Petals: Beginner-Friendly Basics – Handmade Flower Craft

Tsumami-zaiku is a traditional Japanese craft that dates back to the Edo period and was used for hairpins and hair ornaments.

It involves folding and pinching fabrics such as chirimen crepe and habutae silk to form shapes, allowing you to make flowers like cherry blossoms and chrysanthemums, as well as animals like rabbits and birds.

The finished decorations are cute not only as kanzashi hairpins but also as accessories like earrings or as keychains.

It’s an especially recommended craft for those who wear traditional Japanese clothing, and it’s also a great idea to incorporate into handmade wedding items.

Butter Slime

[Experiment] Ultra-Realistic! I Tried Making Butter Slime! How to Make Butter Slime

A slime so buttery you’ll want to spread it on bread without thinking! Mix glue with water thoroughly, then add yellow paint and mix again until it looks close to butter.

Next, add shaving foam—something you don’t often see in crafts! After mixing well, add a solution of borax dissolved in warm water and stir.

Finally, knead in some polymer clay, and you’ll have fluffy, stretchy, and satisfyingly strange butter slime.

It looks so delicious that you should take extra care to prevent small children from putting it in their mouths!
