Sakura wall decoration

Small and cute! How to make a cherry blossom wall decoration (wall decor) – DIY How to Make Paper Cherry Blossom Wall Decoration

Sakura wall decoration

When it comes to cherry blossoms, their small size is part of their charm, evoking both cuteness and a sense of fleeting beauty.

This wall decoration is made by combining pieces of paper to create the look of tiny cherry blossoms lined up together.

The flowers are crafted with a simple method of punching them out using a craft punch, and by paying attention to creasing, you can give them a three-dimensional feel.

After that, decorate the cherry blossoms with beads, line them up on a ribbon and attach them, then hang them so they dangle from a rod to finish.

Besides pink cherry blossoms, it’s also recommended to arrange flowers in various colors for a colorful look.

Sakura hanging ornaments

[No-Sew] Easy to display because it’s a half-sphere! Felt cherry blossom hanging decoration / flower kusudama / cherry blossom flower ball / Hinamatsuri DIY / Hinamatsuri craft / DIY felt cherry blossoms ornament

Sakura hanging ornaments

We’d like to introduce a hanging cherry blossom decoration that will fill your room with the feeling of spring.

First, cut felt into a long, thin strip, make small slits, roll it up, and create the flower center (stamens).

Next, cut felt into a circle and make five evenly spaced cuts toward the center.

Round off the corners and trim the tips of the petals.

Add color with pastels or chalk, then glue the flower center to the middle.

While folding the petals, attach them around the center.

Your flower is complete.

Make six of these.

Cut another felt circle and glue the flowers you made along the circle.

It’s nice to place the best-shaped one in the center.

Sandwich the string and a flower between pieces of felt and glue them together to finish your hanging decoration.

The overall look can change dramatically depending on the flower colors and how you cut the petals, so have fun finding your own unique combination.

Give it a try!
