[For Seniors] Wall Decorations to Enjoy October

Halloween monster balloon

Halloween Monster Balloon 🎃 #origami #shorts #Halloween

Halloween, a major event in autumn, features a variety of characters centered around ghosts.

Let’s create those Halloween characters by adding designs to origami balloons.

Since all the origami pieces share the same cube shape, your choice of colors and how you draw the designs are key.

While including classic motifs like jack-o’-lanterns and mummies, try coming up with your own monsters as well.

It could also be fun to incorporate not only monsters from overseas but Japanese yokai, too.

Cute maple leaves

[Autumn Origami] Easy! Cute Maple Leaf How to Make / Fall Foliage Decoration Origami Maple

When it comes to plants that symbolize autumn, brilliantly colored red and yellow autumn leaves come to mind.

Let’s make those evocative fall leaves with origami.

This project combines parts to create a three-dimensional finish, resulting in sturdy origami that works not only as part of a decoration but also stands on its own.

Cut small pieces of origami paper with scissors, fold them into diamond shapes, and assemble them to form a maple leaf.

By paying attention to the seam in the center, you’ll achieve a lifelike three-dimensional shape.

You can even aim for a more realistic look by intentionally combining parts of slightly different sizes instead of using pieces that are all the same.

A maple scenery with a window

Introducing how to make an autumn maple leaf wall decoration using origami and paper cords! Why not try creating it on the walls of facilities during the fall foliage season in October and November? [Tsukuru-mon]

This decoration uses origami and paper cords to depict an autumn foliage scene as seen through a round window.

Using paper gives the whole piece a soft feel, and it also creates a luxurious atmosphere reminiscent of windows in a traditional inn or restaurant.

The steps are simple: first, use bundled, thickened paper cords to make the circular window frame and lattice.

Next, cut origami to create maple trees and leaves, and arrange them on the wall.

Finally, paste the window frame you made at the beginning over the foliage to complete the piece.

The key is how you attach each part—adhere only part of each piece so the rest lifts slightly off the surface, which enhances the soft look.

Highly recommended.

chrysanthemum flower

Wall decoration: Two easy types of chrysanthemum flowers made with origami and colored paper (with voice-over). How to make easy chrysanthemum flowers from paper / 2 types.

There are many varieties of chrysanthemums, aren’t there? Because there are so many types, their peak viewing season lasts throughout most of the year, except during the cold winter months.

Chrysanthemums have long been familiar flowers in Japan, so many older adults likely feel a close connection to them.

Here, we’ll introduce a wall decoration made with origami chrysanthemums.

Fold the origami paper and cut it so that it forms petal shapes.

Open and refold the paper, tie a string at the center, and adjust the petals to finish.

The number of petals will change depending on how you fold the paper.

You can also make beautiful chrysanthemums by creating petals from strip-shaped construction paper and gluing them together.

Let’s decorate with various kinds of chrysanthemums to brighten up the facility.

Being in a room with chrysanthemums is sure to bring a sense of calm to older adults.

mackerel sky

Kimie Gangi: Autumn wall display “Mackerel clouds made with sardine stencils”

When you look up at the sky and see mackerel clouds, doesn’t it make you quietly think, “Ah, autumn is here”? These mackerel clouds are also a perfect motif for autumn wall decorations! It’s an idea you can use on the walls of senior care facilities as well, so please give it a try.

Cut out multiple templates with sardine silhouettes and arrange them on white drawing paper to resemble mackerel clouds.

Then spray blue ink over them to depict mackerel clouds floating in the autumn sky! When spraying, move closer or farther away to adjust the depth of the sky’s color.

Add autumn flowers like cosmos, and you’ll have a beautiful wall art display!
