Make it with kitchen paper! Here are some ideas for morning glory decorations.

When you picture a morning glory, the softly spreading colors are especially striking, aren’t they? This time, let’s use kitchen paper to create beautiful morning glories.

You will need kitchen paper, circular shapes, water, a backing sheet, mixed ink, and colored construction paper.

It seems that kitchen paper moistened with water, or kitchen paper after applying ink, produces beautiful, vivid colors when you blot the excess moisture.

Sparkling Jellyfish

Irresistibly soothing! Here are some sparkling jellyfish ideas to try.

How about hanging cool-looking jellyfish decorations in your room? This time, we’ll use pipe cleaners and beads to make jellyfish, so their glittering shine will be lovely.

You’ll need empty capsules, pipe cleaners, beads, rhinestones, eye parts, glue, string, and more.

It’s perfect for kids’ summer break crafts, too.

Create in the world you want to express, and be sure to watch your child’s expressions while they decorate.

Let’s make a refreshing skeleton fan! Here are some goldfish fan ideas.

How about creating a pierced, see-through fan that looks beautiful even when held up to the blue sky? This time, the goldfish motif gives it a uniquely summery, beautiful design! You’ll need a clear plastic sheet, a fan base, a thick straw, masking tape, a stapler, goldfish stickers, artificial aquatic plants, rhinestones, glue, and double-sided tape.

It’s great that just by changing the placement of the stickers, you can create a fan that matches your own vision.

Cooler made with 100-yen shop items

DIY with Daiso products! Make a homemade cooler! Perfect for camping or a summer vacation craft project. #craft #DIY #Daiso

Air conditioners make rooms nice and cool, but installing one is expensive and maintaining it—like cleaning—can be a hassle.

So this time, we’re introducing a portable DIY cooler! Cut a hole in the lid of a cooler box and attach a small fan.

After creating an air outlet on the side of the cooler, add dividers inside to keep ice packs standing upright.

Attach a box on the outside of the cooler to hold a battery, and you’re done.

If you use a mobile battery, it’ll be a great item for camping and other outdoor activities, too.
