Cute on windows or walls too! Here’s a skeleton cherry blossom craft idea.

You’ll need pink origami paper, transparent origami paper, scissors, a clear file folder, and glue.

First, crease the pink origami paper, cut it into a cherry blossom shape, and make a frame.

Next, cut the transparent origami paper into small pieces and stick them onto the clear file.

Finally, glue the cherry blossom frame you made from the origami paper on top of the clear file, trim around it, and you’re done! Give it a try!

Let’s decorate your entrance or gate in a festive way! Here’s how to make a weeping cherry blossom arch.

You’ll need pink origami paper, double-sided tape, a hole punch, and scissors.

First, apply double-sided tape along one edge of an origami sheet and connect four sheets together.

Next, accordion-fold the connected papers left and right, then fold into thirds and sketch a cherry blossom shape.

Finally, punch holes with the hole punch and cut along the blossom outline with scissors to finish.

Adjust the size to fit the wall where you want to display it, such as by the entrance, and create your own weeping cherry blossom arch.

An idea where you can see cherry blossoms through the window! Let me introduce the cherry blossom arch window.

What you’ll need: cherry blossom cut-paper, light blue origami paper, pink origami paper, a pencil, scissors, tape, double-sided tape, and a compass.

Depending on the region and weather, the cherry blossoms might not be in bloom on the day of the graduation ceremony, but with this idea, it will look like big cherry blossoms are blooming in the windows of the classroom where everyone spent time together—so charming, right? Making the cherry blossom cut-paper together with the children is also a great option.

It’s sure to become a sunny-day memory!

Cherry blossoms made with finger painting

Here are some creative ideas for making cherry blossoms with finger painting.

Attach a tree trunk made from construction paper to a large sheet of drawing paper or poster paper, then use paint-covered hands to boldly create the cherry blossom petals.

You can stamp to get clear handprints, or deliberately break up the shape, or slide your hand after stamping—expressing it freely is fun, too.

In addition to finger painting, adding crumpled pink and white tissue paper or petal shapes cut from construction paper will make it even more vibrant, so it’s highly recommended.

Cherry blossoms made with straw stamps

[Using only a straw] Let’s draw cherry blossoms♪ Just stamp them—simple and cute
Cherry blossoms made with straw stamps

Let’s use straws to create a cherry blossom wall display! As preparation, draw the trunk of a cherry tree on construction paper or similar.

Cut the mouthpiece end of a straw and open it out into a flower shape.

Dip it in pink paint, then stamp the blossoms onto the tree.

The stamping step is fun even for infants and toddlers, so it could be nice for everyone to work together to make one big cherry tree.

You could write “Congratulations on your graduation” above the tree and display it on the wall as a gift from the current students.

Cherry blossoms made with finger paints

Let’s try expressing a cherry blossom tree with finger stamps! First, prepare the base cherry tree using construction paper.

Once you have white and pink paint ready, dip your preferred finger and stamp the cherry blossom areas.

The finger stamps will become the petals, so stamp plenty of them.

If your base is light pink, it’s a good idea to use a darker pink for the paint.

Mix just a little water into the paint.

After attaching the cherry tree to a backing sheet so it’s easy to display on the wall, try stamping around it as well to depict petals blowing in the wind.

Cherry blossom petal stamp

Here’s a cherry blossom craft idea using a petal stamp.

First, fold one side of a toilet paper roll inward to make a V shape.

On the opposite side, press it in slightly and make a small V with a valley fold.

Round the left and right sides a bit, and your cherry blossom petal stamp is ready! Dip it in paint and stamp onto a cherry blossom tree cut out of construction paper.

Stamping outside the tree base also looks lovely, as it expresses petals scattering and dancing in the air.
