Cosmos wreath you can make with origami

[Origami] Cosmos Wreath – Easy 3D Folding Tutorial | Autumn Flower Origami | Kid-Friendly Instructions | September–October–November Origami [Origami]

Use four 7.5 cm origami sheets for the cosmos and four 15 cm sheets for the base.

First, fold a 7.5 cm sheet into a triangle, then cross the left and right corners inward and fold so they overlap neatly.

Fold the folded sections back to align with the outer edges, crease well, then open those parts and squash-fold them flat.

Tuck both corners of the squashed section to the back, and cut small triangular notches into the three top corners—this completes one petal piece.

Glue four pieces together to make the cosmos, and place a round sticker in the center.

For the base, fold the top and bottom corners to the center of the paper, then fold the whole thing in half by overlapping top and bottom.

Aligning with the top left and right corners, fold the bottom edge up on each side; once creased, squash-fold those sections.

Make four of these, glue them into a circle, and attach the cosmos to finish the wreath.

Making the cosmos in different colors will look bright and festive.

Yarn Winding! Bagworm Ornament

[Autumn Craft] Yarn-Wrapped Bagworm Ornament

Let’s try making a bagworm craft that also lets you have fun with yarn.

First, glue colored construction paper onto white construction paper and cut it into an egg shape.

Make small slits around the edge, then wind the yarn around and around, tucking it into the slits as you go.

Wrap gently so the paper doesn’t warp, but firmly enough that the yarn doesn’t loosen and come off.

Once you’ve finished wrapping the yarn, decorate the case with round stickers, draw the face with a pen, add a touch of pink to the cheeks with blush, and you’re done!

Autumn wall display! Mushrooms and bagworms

[Autumn Wall Decorations] A Preschool Teacher Explains Mushrooms and Bagworms! (For Ages 3–5)

This is a wall decoration of mushrooms and bagworms that’s fun to stick on with glue.

First, make the parts.

Using construction paper in your favorite colors, cut out mushrooms in various shapes.

If you’re working with small children, please cut them in advance.

After cutting slits in the mushrooms, cut separate pieces of construction paper to serve as the stems.

Next, make the bagworms.

Have the children help with what they can, like drawing the eyes.

Now for the assembly.

Tear pieces of construction paper and glue them onto a background sheet to form the bagworm’s body.

Add the eyes and a little hat, too.

Finally, overlap the mushroom pieces at the slits and glue them so they become three-dimensional—that’s it, you’re done.

Cut a sheet of origami paper into four equal strips (tanzaku) with scissors and separate them.

You’ll use only three, so set one aside for another craft.

Fold each of the three pieces in half vertically, then in half horizontally, in that order.

For just one of the three pieces, cut along the crease made by the horizontal fold to split it in two.

Take one of these halves, fold it so its length is halved, and round off the corner on the side where the layers are not connected.

Insert the remaining uncut piece between the others, and make a matching curved cut slightly above the first curve.

Cut the remaining two pieces in the same way, staple them together at the base, and then fan open the layers—the shape will look like a maple leaf.

Cute mushrooms on the wall, too.

Fold the origami paper in half into a square twice to make creases, then open it.

Fold the top left and right corners in to meet at the center.

Turn the paper over, fold the bottom edge up to match the horizontal crease, then turn it over again and fold the left and right sides in along the vertical creases.

Fold the top triangular part downward, then use that crease to make a pleat fold.

Squash the pleated sections from both sides into triangles to form the mushroom’s cap and stem.

Finally, tuck the remaining corners inward to round out the shape, and you’re done.

Drawing a face on it makes it even cuter.
