[For Seniors] Let’s Make It Together! Wonderful Ideas for November Wall Decorations (21–30)
persimmon
With the arrival of autumn, how about making a wall decoration themed around persimmons? It’s a simple craft that just involves cutting and pasting origami or construction paper, making it easy for older adults to try and giving them the joy of seeing their own creations! To make the persimmon fruit, fold a square sheet of origami paper in half twice, sketch the shape, and cut it out.
Then simply glue the pieces together to create a three-dimensional look.
The persimmon leaves are made the same way, resulting in a charming, rounded shape that older adults will also enjoy.
You can display them on facility walls, or use them as hanging decorations, garlands, or standalone objects! Create a unique persimmon tree together with older adults and welcome the gentle arrival of autumn.
Autumn hanging ornaments
How about making a hanging decoration of maple leaves that sway and twirl beautifully? Fold origami a few times and, using a paper-cutting technique, create autumn leaves like maple and ginkgo.
Making the maples in various colors—red, yellow, and orange—will give a lovely finish.
Adding creases to the ginkgo and fallen leaves adds depth and makes their swaying motion more delightful.
Cut a painted paper plate into a spiral, then glue on the leaves and maples you made.
The way it twirls and swings is colorful and fun—you’ll never get tired of watching it.
mackerel sky
A wall decoration of sardine clouds made using a stencil results in a unique finish, making it a great choice when you want decorations to stand out at events.
The key is to use masking tape that combines painter’s tape and masking film (masker tape).
The steps are simple: first, prepare paper cutouts using a sardine-shaped template.
Next, glue the stencil onto the masker tape and stick it down, then spray evenly over the top.
Finally, peel off the stencil to reveal vivid sardine clouds.
It’s easy to make yet produces a very beautiful result, so consider incorporating it into recreational activities.

Here’s an idea for a “persimmon torn-paper art” project that expresses the fruit by tearing orange and red paper into small pieces.
Add leaves and branches to create a natural look, and use it as a calendar decoration to evoke the richness of the autumn season.
Torn-paper art, which involves using the hands and fingers, is effective for finger dexterity and stimulating cognitive function in older adults, and it also helps cultivate concentration.
As a calendar decoration, it enhances the seasonal atmosphere and creates a warm, soothing space.
It’s a recommended craft that can be enjoyed at a relaxed pace.
November calendar collage
How about making a fall-themed collage with the calendar you have now? All you need are washi tapes with autumn patterns and your favorite stickers.
Prepare designs that are perfect for fall, such as autumn leaves, ginkgo, dango, and squirrels.
Use washi tape to frame the standout areas, then place stickers in the empty spaces while keeping the overall balance in mind.
You can also combine several stickers to create an autumnal scene.
Transform your calendar into the image of autumn that you have in mind.
Origami Owl
It would be lovely to attach an origami owl—appearing on cool, quiet autumn nights—to your November calendar.
For the owl’s wings, using stickers or colored pens to draw in the details will add a sense of depth.
You might also set a nighttime background and draw stars and the moon before adding the owl illustration.
We recommend making the owl with brown or orange origami paper.
Give it a try and create a beautiful November calendar!
origami maple leaf
Here’s an idea for making “fallen leaf origami” from a single sheet of paper.
By changing the size of the paper, you can create leaves in various sizes, giving a natural sense of depth and dimension.
Use colors like red, brown, and yellow, and layer multiple leaves to enhance the three-dimensional look and make them appear more realistic.
If you cover an entire calendar page with them, a vivid autumn scene will unfold, gently brightening your room.
It’s also good exercise for the fingers, making it an enjoyable project for older adults.
Give it a try!
