Made with a single sheet of origami paper! Origami umbrella

[Make it with one sheet of origami] Easy and cute umbrella folding method ◇Origami Umbrella, rain, sky, June◇

Here’s how to make a flat umbrella from a single sheet of origami paper.

It’s also great as a wall decoration during the rainy season.

Fold it in half horizontally, rotate it, and fold in half horizontally again.

Fold along one of the creases, then cut along the folded line to separate the paper.

Use the larger piece to make the umbrella canopy and the smaller piece to make the handle, then combine them to form the umbrella shape.

The key is to make crisp creases—using your fingernail helps create sharp fold lines.

Try using origami paper in various colors and patterns to decorate with a rainbow of umbrellas.

Perfect for the rainy season! How to fold an umbrella

[Origami for the Rainy Season] How to Make an Umbrella with Audio Instructions ☆ Origami Umbrella Tutorial – June Decoration

Here’s a super cute way to fold a paper umbrella that’ll make you want to create lots and decorate with them.

Let’s use two 15-cm square sheets of origami paper.

Before you start, take one of the sheets and cut it into two strips, each one-quarter the width (long, narrow strips).

Using the uncut sheet, make the part where the umbrella opens—the canopy.

The pre-cut long strips will be used to make the handle and the shaft.

Although you assemble three separate parts, the steps are very simple, so it’s easy to complete.

It also looks adorable with patterned origami, so try making it with different papers!

[Marbling] Umbrella and Frog

Introduction to a Rainy Season Craft Using Marbling [Nursery/Kindergarten]

Let me share an idea for making “Umbrellas and Frogs” with marbling.

Marbling is a technique where you drip paint onto water to create patterns, then transfer them onto paper.

Fill a tray with water, then drip marbling paints onto it as you like.

Use a toothpick or skewer to create a pattern, and gently lay the paper on top.

Lift the paper, and if the pattern has transferred, let it dry.

Cut the marbled paper into an umbrella shape, glue it onto a backing sheet, and draw the umbrella handle and raindrops with a pen.

Finally, add an origami frog, and you’re done.

It’s a fun project that makes you excited to see what kind of umbrella pattern you’ll get, so give it a try in June!

[Age 5] Umbrella bouquet made with paper plates

Let’s make a festive umbrella bouquet to brighten up your space.

Cut a paper plate in half, then trim the cut edge into an arch to resemble the rim of an umbrella.

Cut out the handle from another part of the paper plate and attach it to the umbrella piece.

Paint the umbrella and handle in bright colors, then glue on flowers made from tissue paper to finish.

Adding round stickers to the centers of the flowers makes them look even more realistic.

When you display it, punch a hole in the handle, thread a string through, and hang it so the umbrella is upside down.

[Stickers] Colorful Umbrellas and Frogs

Let’s try making a cute craft with a colorful umbrella and a little frog.

With this idea, kids can enjoy fingertip stamping and sticking stickers.

Have the children use finger stamps to make a rainy pattern on a sheet of construction paper that will serve as the background.

Next, cut out the umbrella and frog parts from construction paper.

An adult should do the cutting.

Once the parts are ready, decorate the umbrella by adding stickers to make patterns.

You can draw the frog’s face, but it’s also recommended to paste a photo of the child—this makes it look like they’re wearing the frog’s raincoat and it’s super cute.

Finally, glue the umbrella and frog parts onto the background sheet, and you’re done!

[Age 3] A Coffee Filter Umbrella

[Rainy Season Craft] Make Cute Coffee Filter Umbrellas! Perfect for the Rainy Season! [For 3-Year-Olds]

Here’s a craft idea for making umbrellas where kids can enjoy bleed art using coffee filters.

First, cut off the rim of the coffee filter to make it a bit smaller, then have the children draw patterns on it with water-based markers.

Once the patterns are drawn, spray water with a mister and enjoy watching the ink bleed.

Since fine details won’t be visible once the colors bleed, let the children know this in advance.

After the water dries, cut a slit in the center of the bottom, thread a chenille stem (pipe cleaner) through to secure it, and curl the handle at the end to finish.

[For ages 4] 3D umbrellas made from construction paper

[Nursery/Kindergarten] Umbrella Craft Ideas ♪ Cute Hanging Decorations! [Rainy Season & June Crafts/How-To]

Let’s make a 3D umbrella using construction paper and a straw.

If you connect them with string, they could also work as a mobile or garland.

First, prepare construction paper cut into circles.

Fold each circle in half, then fold it in half again.

Make seven of these in different colors.

Align the directions and glue six of them together, then attach a straw at the center and glue on the last piece.

Bend the accordion section of the straw to form the handle, and your umbrella is complete.

You can also make this idea with origami paper and chenille stems (pipe cleaners), which is recommended if you want a lighter umbrella.
