Honeybees and a flower field
Spring—what do you imagine? Cute honeybees and flower fields… how perfectly spring-like! Would you like to make those two motifs? First, prepare origami paper, A4 copier paper, scissors, a craft knife, glue, colored pencils, and a pencil.
It might be a good idea to divide up the tasks and work together.
If you make them in a big group, chatting and having fun, you’ll grow fond of the finished pieces, right? You could even use them as decorations for a calendar! Be sure to give it a try!
Eraser-stamp Hina dolls
How about making a gentle-looking Hina Doll calendar using eraser stamps made from various parts? Cut out the necessary pieces: connect rectangular parts to form the tiered stand, and use circular parts for the faces, and so on.
When stamping, it’s a good idea to wipe each part stamp with kneaded eraser to keep the colors from mixing.
The parts can be shared among several people, and regardless of drawing skill, you can simply stamp away in your favorite colors—pat, pat—to create an adorable set of Hina dolls.
Give it a try!
Chinese milk vetch
A wall decoration featuring bright pink Chinese milk vetch blossoms.
Since it requires precise hand movements, it’s recommended for seniors who want to try more advanced origami.
Cut the petal pieces according to the template and lightly score the fold lines.
For the stem, make all the fold lines valley folds, then overlap both edges and glue them securely in place.
For the flower pieces, alternate valley and mountain folds starting from the lower fold line to create a three-dimensional shape.
Where the fold lines split into three, make mountain folds from both sides and push the center line inward into a valley fold.
By pressing down the lightly made mountain folds and creasing them more deeply, the flower shape will hold firmly.
Finally, glue together the petals, stem, and leaves to complete the piece.
A field of clover
Haven’t you ever gone searching for clovers? They say finding one brings good luck… This video shows you how to actually make those lucky clovers! By making lots of them, you can create a lovely decoration like a field.
They’d be great for room decor or for making calendars at day services, too! The more you make, the more it looks like a grassy meadow.
Try working on it with a big group! Changing the clover colors can add depth as well… Be sure to make plenty and put them to good use!
Hanging decoration of peach blossoms
Here’s an idea for a hanging decoration that showcases the beautiful shades of peach blossoms.
Why not make items to decorate for Hinamatsuri or to brighten the walls and doors of senior care facilities? Fold pink origami or tissue paper and make small cuts with scissors to create petal shapes.
Once you’ve made each part in the same size, attach them to a string for the hanging decoration.
Finally, add flower details with round stickers, and your peach blossom hanging decoration is complete.
It’s also recommended to use floral-patterned paper or display cherry blossoms together.
Sakura wall decoration
When it comes to cherry blossoms, their small size is part of their charm, evoking both cuteness and a sense of fleeting beauty.
This wall decoration is made by combining pieces of paper to create the look of tiny cherry blossoms lined up together.
The flowers are crafted with a simple method of punching them out using a craft punch, and by paying attention to creasing, you can give them a three-dimensional feel.
After that, decorate the cherry blossoms with beads, line them up on a ribbon and attach them, then hang them so they dangle from a rod to finish.
Besides pink cherry blossoms, it’s also recommended to arrange flowers in various colors for a colorful look.
