I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Ring toss is a classic festival booth you often see at daycare and kindergarten events, elementary schools, and summer festivals at senior facilities.

It’s great because anyone can easily give it a try, regardless of age or gender—and if there are prizes like candy, people tend to get really into it!

And that satisfying feeling when the ring slips right onto the target—nothing like it!

In this article, we’ll share DIY ideas for making your own ring toss.

They range from projects using everyday household items to ones that make use of dedicated kits.

There’s a wide variety, so be sure to take a look!

Origami ring

Let’s try making ring toss rings by combining parts made from origami.

Since the material is light, they’re easy to throw, and another key point is that you can create your ideal colorful rings depending on which colors of origami you use.

Mass-produce triangle-like pieces and connect them by inserting each piece into the gaps of the next.

It’s also important to crease firmly so the ring ends up sturdy.

For the ring toss target or post, paper cups or a plastic wrap core are recommended.

You might want to choose the post based on the size of the ring’s hole.

With this loop with a string attached, you can easily enjoy a ring toss game.

First, roll up some newspaper to make a ring.

Wrap it with vinyl tape from the outside to reinforce it.

It’s also recommended to decorate it by adding masking tape or similar on top.

Then, attach a piece of yarn or another string to the ring, and it’s complete! Use building blocks or crumpled newspaper as targets, place them in various spots, aim at the targets and toss the ring, then pull it back to yourself with the string.

Draw a line to clearly show where to throw from.
