Open the paper after folding it into a triangle, place it so the crease runs horizontally, and fold the two left edges to meet the crease.

Rotate the paper so the newly made point is at the bottom, then turn it over.

Fold it in half by bringing the top and bottom points together, turn it over again, and squash the pocketed section into a triangle while folding it to overlap the shape below.

Fold up the lower front and back corners to sandwich the top triangle you just squashed, then open the corners of that sandwiched triangle to both sides to form the maple leaf.

Fold down the large triangle on the front, then squash-fold the left and right corners to create the leaf stem, and you’re done.

Colorful bookmark

[Autumn Craft] Stained Glass-Style ♪ How to Make a Colorful Bookmark [Ashitaba Channel]

What comes to mind when you think of autumn? When we think of autumn, we think of reading season—and when we think of reading, we think of bookmarks! So let’s all make bookmarks inspired by autumn.

You’ll need thick paper (cardstock), tracing paper, and flower paper.

You can find flower paper at large 100-yen shops.

Draw an autumn-themed illustration on a piece of cardstock cut to bookmark size.

Cut out the illustration with a craft knife—make sure an adult handles the parts that require using the knife.

Make two of the same design.

Stick tracing paper over the cut-out sections, then paste on colorful flower paper—this is the most fun part! Layer the two pieces of cardstock together, and make the tassel or string part with the flower paper to finish.

With the desire to use their own handmade bookmarks, everyone will be eager to start reading!

stylish tree

Perfect for the art-filled autumn season! Here’s an artistic and stylish tree-making idea.

It’s a craft activity that draws out children’s free creativity, so why not try it in your nursery or kindergarten? Teachers cut construction paper into leaf shapes, and children freely color them with crayons or paints.

Next, tear kraft paper or other paper into branch and trunk shapes and paste them on! Finish by arranging the colored leaves.

It’s also lovely to add stamp play using various recycled materials.
