Let’s handcraft decorations for the farewell party! A collection of heartfelt ideas (21–30)
Coloring flowers
It’s an idea where the ink dissolves in water and beautifully tints a white flower.
Cut kitchen paper into circles and draw a line with a water-based pen in the center.
Place each circular piece over the rim of a paper cup with the bottom cut out, and attach them as you layer them.
Make sure to layer them so that the lines drawn with the water-based pen align along the rim.
Once nothing is visible through the hole in the cup, you’re done! When you remove the kitchen paper from the cup, you’ll have a flower that looks like a rose.
There’s also a simple version where you draw lines on the kitchen paper first, then cut it, accordion-fold it, and open it up—be sure to check it out.
Heart chain decoration
Just looking at heart shapes can lift your spirits, right? Try decorating the farewell party with heart-shaped ornaments.
Use origami and cut out heart shapes.
Make several with a thin outline left, then snip small cuts into the outlines to connect the hearts together.
A chain of linked hearts adds extra charm and festivity.
With these connected heart decorations, the person setting off into a new world is sure to feel bright and positive.
How to Make a Hot Air Balloon Sakura with Origami
Let’s make a balloon cherry blossom by treating a hot air balloon as if it were a sakura flower.
Balloons carry meanings like travel and departure, so they’re perfect for the season of setting off on new journeys.
First, glue two shades of pink construction paper, slightly offset, and attach leaves and cherry blossoms in the gaps.
Secure the lower part with glue, and fasten the upper part with a stapler so it becomes half three-dimensional.
Once that’s done, attach the basket where people would ride, and decorate around it with flowers and butterflies.
It will make a very luxurious wall decoration.
Please give it a try.
Perler bead flower

Perler beads are pipe-shaped beads that melt when heat is applied.
Using this property, you can also make pieces that hold their shape once fused.
Even without heat, you can make lovely decorations by putting beads into a shallow paper cup.
Attach stems and leaves made from construction paper to the cup.
Put your preferred Perler beads into the paper cup with glue inside.
Once it dries, it’s done.
It’s a simple method, but you can make cute flowers.
If you decorate an entire wall with Perler bead flowers, you can create a flower field indoors.
A farewell party with handmade flowers also conveys the warmth of the maker.
It’s a decoration that invites you to enjoy arranging how you display the finished pieces.
A flower floating in midair
@lauren.lieser19 Easy diy floating flower photo backdrop💐I used a round backdrop stand with a fitted white cover, then cut faux flowers into individual stems and safety pinned each one to the fabric to make them look like they were floating. This project turned out even prettier than I had pictured! #photobackdrop#floatingflower#floralbackdrop#partydecor#graduationparty#partysetup#diyproject#creatorsearchinsights

You know the base frame with fabric stretched over it that’s used for embroidery? This idea uses an enlarged version of that, and you decorate it with flowers.
Because the base is big, it makes the flowers look like they’re floating in midair—so pretty! It works as a wall decoration on its own and would also be great as a photo spot.
You can use fresh flowers or handmade paper flowers.
If you design it to highlight the fabric on the base, it gives an elegant impression, and if you decorate it with an abundance of flowers, it creates a glamorous look.
