[For Seniors] Brighten Up Hinamatsuri: Wall Decoration Ideas
Wall decorations at senior facilities like day services change every month.
Many of them reflect the seasons, which really lifts the spirits.
This time, we’re featuring wall decorations for seniors with a focus on Hinamatsuri (Girls’ Day)! While many decorations center on the imperial dolls—the Odairi-sama and Ohina-sama—there are many different ways to make them.
Choose your favorite style.
If you display plum or peach blossoms together, the space will instantly feel like spring.
After you’ve made and put them up, enjoy Hinamatsuri together while admiring the wall decorations.

A simple Hina decoration you’ll want to display

Easy Hina Doll decoration you can make by downloading the template! Just paste the bonbori lanterns, hishi-mochi, and Hina dolls onto the background illustration to complete it.
First, mount the background illustration on thick paper and trim off the excess.
For the bonbori, cut several circular pieces from colored paper of your choice, fold each in half, then glue them together to form a hemisphere.
For the hishi-mochi, prepare pink, white, and green colored paper, cut them according to the template, and stack/glue them in layers.
For how to make the Hina dolls, check the video linked in the description and try folding along with it.
Rabbit Hina-doll wreath

This is a fluffy and cute rabbit wreath.
Prepare a wreath base and yarn, which you can also buy at 100-yen shops.
Wrap the yarn around the wreath.
Thread wire through pom-poms to make flowers and hanging ornaments.
For the Hina dolls, attach felt ears and faces to the pom-poms.
Once you insert decorative wire into the base to secure everything, it’s complete.
The theme here is Hina Matsuri, but with a few adjustments, it could be enjoyed for various events.
Displaying it on the wall of a senior facility or your room will brighten the space instantly.
It’s so cute that it would also make a delightful gift for your grandchildren.
Hanging decorations of plum and camellia

Seeing brightly colored flowers really makes you feel that spring has arrived, doesn’t it? For a craft activity in March, when there’s still a chill in the air, I recommend hanging decorations featuring plum blossoms and camellias.
Prepare some pom-pom balls and green floral wire.
You can buy these at 100-yen shops! Thread wire through five pink pom-poms, form a loop, then twist to secure and create a flower.
The key is to pull the pom-poms firmly together to close the gaps.
Tuck the twisted part inside so it doesn’t show.
Make a bush warbler using a green pom-pom and yellow felt, attach it to a string, and you’re done.
You’ve made a hanging decoration that instantly brightens up the room.
Try making it with older adults so they can feel the arrival of spring.
Hanging Hina Dolls Made with Jam Lids
@an_hoiku_seisaku I made a hanging Hina decoration using jam jar lids 🎎 Check my previous post for the origami Hina dolls! They’re super easy ✨#HinamatsuriCraft#Childcare Crafting#Production VideoMarchHina DollsProduction#Nursery school

Let’s make an original hanging decoration using jam jar lids, origami paper, construction paper, tissue paper, and kite string.
The origami part will be Hina dolls.
First, fold up two adjacent edges.
Fold so that the folded section and the remaining section are the same width.
Draw faces on the remaining white area, and fold up the bottom corner to finish.
With construction paper, we’ll make a spherical ornament: cut it into circles, fold them in half, then stack and glue them together.
Attach the Hina dolls and ornaments to the kite string, tie them to a lid frame (with only the rim remaining), and finish by gluing rolled-up tissue paper to the side.
Hanging Hina Dolls Made with Paper Plates

This is a paper-plate hanging decoration you’ll want to display in your room.
First, glue torn pieces of pink and white tissue paper onto a paper plate.
Then make a hole in the center of the plate and thread yarn tied to a straw through it.
On the opposite side, add a bead as a stopper and glue it in place.
Thread twine through the straw and attach paper hina dolls made from construction paper to the end.
Punch four holes at the bottom of the paper plate, thread yarn decorated with paper peach blossoms and circular ornaments through them, and tie to finish.
Simply changing the colors of the tissue paper and construction paper will give it a different feel.
Hanging Hina decoration made with accordion folding
https://www.tiktok.com/@mii_no_seisak/video/7602914620805745941Let me show you how to make a hanging Hina decoration that anyone can create easily.
First, accordion-fold a plain sheet of origami paper and fold it in half.
Then, sandwich a patterned origami paper folded the same way inside and glue them together.
This will become the body of the Hina doll.
After that, just attach a face and small accessories made from construction paper and you’re done.
Next, let’s make decorations like peach blossoms and hishi-mochi.
Tie kite string to a base made from a tapioca (bubble tea) straw, then glue on the Hina dolls and the decorations, and you’re all set! If cutting out the parts is difficult, prepare them in advance.

A hanging ornament of yo-yo quilt made from fabric scraps

Let’s make a hanging decoration with a calm, soothing feel using fabric with traditional Japanese patterns.
You can make this with fabric scraps, so prepare plenty of your favorite prints.
After making a paper pattern and cutting the fabric, fold it in half with the right sides together and sew the edges.
Once you have a loop, lightly fold in each end to crease them.
Fold it in half and sew all the way around with large stitches, then pull the thread to form a round shape.
Gently shape it, then thread a cord through along with small fabric balls stuffed with cotton.
Make five of these sets to complete a vibrant yo-yo quilt hanging decoration.
