bagworm
Why not brighten up your facility with a unique wall decoration inspired by bagworms? You can make it simply by wrapping fringed origami paper, so it’s perfect for a fall craft activity at a day service, and great for working on with many participants.
Add eyes with round stickers to give each bagworm a bit of personality.
You can also hang them individually as ornaments or turn them into a garland.
Of course, you could add tree branches and leaves and take on a bigger project—something that might become a memorable experience for older adults.

Apple
How about using a bright red, delicious-looking apple as the subject for a torn-paper collage? An apple doesn’t require much area to be covered and can be expressed with a minimal number of colors, so it’s great even for those who aren’t confident with crafts! If tearing paper and gluing it down feels like a hassle, masking tape makes it super easy.
It’s made from thin, semi-transparent paper, so you can tear it by hand easily, and since it already has adhesive, it won’t get your hands or clothes messy.
Try layering not only red but also warm colors like yellow, orange, and yellow-green to create a sense of depth!
It can be a piece of art! Maple leaf wall decoration
This decoration combines drawing paper and origami, featuring a soft look and striking, layered three-dimensionality.
You use a sheet of drawing paper with a lattice of cuts as the base, then layer maple leaf pieces on top.
By considering the base’s uneven surface as you add the pieces, you can effectively create depth and a realistic sense of dimension in the foliage.
It may also be important to choose a background color that highlights the maple leaf colors.
A rod and string are attached to the top of the base, making it easy to hang and display in a variety of locations.
Cute maple leaves
This is a cute way to make a maple leaf by quartering an origami sheet to create small pieces, folding them again, and assembling them.
Prepare eight diamond-folded pieces: use seven for the maple leaf blades and fold the remaining one into a thin strip for the stem.
Because the paper is small, the creases are fine and may be a bit tricky, but the precise finger movements are great brain training, so it’s recommended.
Open just one side of each diamond, apply glue, and attach the next piece, continuing in this way.
You’ll end up with a sturdy, adorable maple leaf.
origami mushroom
Autumn is the season when leaves pile up on the ground, and it strongly evokes the image of mushrooms growing beneath them.
Let’s make one of these autumn symbols—a mushroom—using a single sheet of origami paper.
The steps bring the colored side to the cap and the white reverse side to the stem.
Pay close attention to the reverse folds to create a clear step between the cap and the stem, then refine the shape with small adjustments to give it an overall rounded look.
It already looks like a mushroom as is, but it’s also fun to develop creativity by drawing your own patterns to make it look even more mushroom-like.
Origami acorn
Let’s make a cute acorn-themed mascot by combining pieces of origami.
As you fold, be mindful of overlapping the layers to create a rounded shape, which will give it a charming three-dimensional look.
Another key point is to achieve a beautiful sense of unity by layering different-colored origami partway through the folding process so that you form the acorn’s cap at the same time.
Once the whole acorn is complete, add patterns and details.
You can go for realistic patterns with lines and gloss, or create a mascot-like design with facial expressions—finish it in your own style.
Origami chrysanthemum
Let’s recreate the beautiful, finely layered petals of a chrysanthemum using origami.
The key is the narrow accordion folding, which also helps train precise finger movements.
After folding the paper into an accordion, trim both ends into rounded shapes to suggest petals, fold the strip in half, and glue it—prepare two of these.
Connect them and fan them out into a circle to complete the flower.
For added color gradation and depth, stack two tiers of different sizes, and adding leaves is also recommended.
