Make your everyday tissues cuter and more convenient! Using your favorite fabrics or papers, decorations, and buttons, create your very own original box tissue cover.
Just placing it in your room adds a stylish accent to your interior—it’s a highly practical craft.
It also makes a wonderful gift for someone special.
Precisely because it’s something you use every day, make it a little chic and a little fun.
Why not brighten your life with a tissue case that showcases your own taste and ideas?
pot holder
A cute potholder made from fabric scraps is a handy item that’s easy to incorporate into everyday life.
It’s important to balance the layering: stack the fabric to make it sturdy so heat doesn’t transfer to your hand, while also keeping enough flexibility to grip items securely.
The process is simple—turning the sewn fabrics inside out—but pay attention to your stitching here as well, and add a final structure that makes it easy to hold.
By creating a pocket for your hand, even a thick potholder becomes more stable to use, and choosing the scraps for the pocket lets you finish it with your own unique design.
eco bag
Now that plastic shopping bags cost money, eco-bags are truly an everyday essential! Why not handcraft this convenient item using your favorite fabric and design? Handmade items have a unique warmth and bring a little joy every time you use them.
They also make practical fabric accessories that are perfect for small gifts to someone special.
All you need is polyester fabric from a 100-yen shop.
Just fold, press the creases, and sew with a machine to finish.
Great for daily grocery runs, as a secondary bag for commuting or school, and for quick use while traveling or on outings!
cutlery case
A cutlery case is handy to have when you eat a bento.
There are many types available, but fabric ones are convenient because you can toss them in the wash when they get dirty.
This idea uses a rectangular piece of fabric folded to create both the compartment(s) for storing cutlery and a flap.
You can make as many dividers as you like, and the steps aren’t very difficult.
If you can use a sewing machine, you should be able to make it quickly.
Cutlery cases come in various shapes, so try finding a style you like.
cushion cover
A cushion cover to go over a store-bought cushion—being able to change the cushion to a design you like is the key point.
Although it’s a simple bag that holds the cushion, be mindful of the finer balance, such as making the size fit the cushion perfectly.
For the opening where you insert the cushion, it’s recommended to place a slit-like opening in the middle of the back, and construct it so that the fabric overlaps.
This keeps the cushion from popping out while also creating a cohesive look.
It may also be good to sew with a softer touch so the cushion’s feel is emphasized.
plastic bottle cover
Many people probably use plastic bottles as a substitute for a water flask, don’t they? Let’s make a perfect gift for such folks: a plastic bottle cover.
Cut fabric to match the size of the bottle, create gussets, and sew it into a tube.
Attach a drawstring and cord stopper so you can cinch the opening.
Next, sew an insulating liner into a tube in the same way as the cover to keep the drink cold.
Finally, make a strap with hardware to wear over the shoulder or around the neck, and assemble all the parts to finish.
