Origami cherry blossom petals are a beautiful craft that evokes the arrival of spring.

Fold the paper toward the center.

As you imagine the shape of cherry blossom petals, round off the corners with gentle folds to create a soft look.

At this point, pay attention to the steps where you fold the paper diagonally—that’s the key.

Finally, make small cuts along the outer edge and open it up; you’ll have airy, fluffy cherry blossom petals.

Adding these small cuts is important for a more realistic finish.

If you line up and paste several blossoms you’ve made, it will look like a tree in full bloom and bring a spring-like atmosphere.

It’s a perfect craft for commemorating school entrance or graduation, so enjoy making it!

If you have children, you’ve probably used them at least once as decorations for birthdays or special occasions.

This time, we’re introducing confetti balloons as a decoration for graduation ceremonies! They’re stylish, with confetti inside the balloons and tassels attached.

They’re also popular as photo props, so be sure to incorporate them into your decorations.

They’re especially recommended for both sides of the entrance/exit doors and for photo booths!

Cherry blossoms symbolize spring in Japan, and because of when they bloom, they are strongly associated with meetings and farewells.

This is a garland made of paper with a cherry blossom motif that conveys a sense of dimension and cuteness.

You create various types of blossoms—some cut into petal shapes and others leaving only the outline—and connect them with thread.

How you arrange blossoms of different sizes is also key; that arrangement helps create a solid sense of depth.

Ribbon decorations that can also serve as a charming accent for the venue.

Make ribbons in various colors to brighten up the entire kindergarten, including the graduation ceremony hall! You can choose your preferred method, such as folding them from origami or cutting construction paper into ribbon shapes.

Using patterned paper or decorating with stickers and drawings is also recommended.

Depending on the origami folds, it might be great to have current students help out.

Try combining the ribbons with portraits, attaching them to other crafts, and using them in a variety of ways.

Paper pom-poms can be displayed in various places, such as on the walls and at the entrance of the graduation ceremony venue.

They’re easy to make using tissue paper, so why not create them as one of your decorations? Stack about 7–8 sheets of tissue paper and fold them in an accordion.

Tie the center with fishing line or similar thread.

Then gently pull apart the sheets one by one, shaping them as you go until they form a flower—done! If you cut both ends into triangles or rounded shapes before spreading them, you’ll get different flower styles, so it could be fun to mix and match them for decoration.

Here’s how to make a recommended weeping cherry blossom arch for the sakura season.

First, overlap four sheets of origami paper by 1 centimeter and glue them together to form a long horizontal strip.

Fold it so the right end is on top, overlapping left and right.

Next, fold it in half so the left end is on top.

Then fold it into thirds.

Make sure the edge of the origami is on the right.

Draw half of a cherry blossom, punch some holes with a hole punch, and cut so the shapes connect.

When you open it up, your weeping cherry blossoms are complete! Make as many strands as you like, line them up on a base, and glue them down to create a weeping cherry blossom arch.

It’s perfect for graduation and entrance ceremonies, so be sure to give it a try.
