[Birthday] Ranking of Popular Entertainment/Performance Ideas (41–50)
aroma candle50rank/position

Store-bought gifts are certainly nice, but giving a heartfelt handmade item can be wonderful too.
How about gifting a handmade aroma candle that can be used every day and brightens daily life? You can get the wax at craft stores or home improvement centers, and you might even find it at 100-yen shops from time to time.
For coloring the candle, use shaved crayons.
Melt the wax in a double boiler, pour it into your favorite mold, and once it hardens, it’s done.
You can also put it in a lovely container of your choice.
It’s a romantic, handmade gift perfect for birthdays or other special occasions.

How about a candy tower as a birthday surprise? Stack colorful sweets to create a one-of-a-kind, special gift.
If you choose treats that perfectly match the person’s tastes, it’s sure to be a hit in both looks and flavor! It’s also fun to assemble together while everyone chats and laughs.
Another plus is that you can customize it freely to fit your budget and venue.
With the tower as the centerpiece, it’s sure to be a lively, unforgettable birthday party.
Just be careful—some places don’t allow outside food, so be sure to check in advance!

If you’re looking for a birthday present for a friend or partner who has exams or job hunting coming up, a handmade charm is a great choice! Fill it with your wishes for support and success, and give it as a gift.
Even if you’re not good at hand-sewing, you can easily make one without stitching by using fabric tape from a 100-yen shop and simply sticking the pieces together.
If you’re skilled at crafts, you might enjoy making a more elaborate charm by adding embroidery or sewing on beads.
Let’s create a lovely charm that gives them a boost of energy just by looking at it.
snack refrigerator53rank/position

It’s like a refrigerator just for sweets! Assemble empty tissue boxes or similar so it opens double-door style like a fridge, decorate the outside with colored paper and lace, add dividers inside, and make it cute.
Then pack it full of your favorite treats, and in no time you’ve got a finished assortment of sweets! It’s the perfect idea when you don’t have much time to prepare but want to give lots of the recipient’s favorite things.
If you’re thinking, “I want to give a heartfelt gift, but I’m not good at baking, crafting, or sewing,” definitely give this a try!
Do-Re-Mi Song Game54rank/position

“Do-Re-Mi Song” is a tune everyone knows and can sing, from adults to kids.
This is a game that uses that very song! Normally, when you sing it, you go in order from Do up to Ti, right? But in this game, after you finish your turn, you can freely choose the next scale degree—an outrageous challenge! It sounds easy, but suddenly jumping to a different note is hard, and the melody almost always turns into total chaos.
That’s exactly what makes it hilarious and exciting—a game that will have everyone in stitches!
handbell55rank/position

It’s a performance where several people each hold two bells and play together in cooperation.
Since each person needs to be fully aware of the exact moments to ring their bells, some prior practice will be necessary.
However, the beautiful sound of the bells will surely fill the venue and soothe everyone present.
It might also be nice to turn off the lights and perform by candlelight.
Pie throwing56rank/position

A party gag that only close friends—especially guys—can pull off: a full-on pie-in-the-face.
After saying a few words to the person being celebrated, you hurl the pie straight at their face.
Even things that are usually hard to say can be voiced honestly in this moment, and it seems like it could bring everyone closer.
