Sakura garland made with obi (kimono sash)

This is a garland made by linking cherry blossoms crafted from paper strips—its charm lies in the cute, three-dimensional look.
The key is that it’s not flat but 3D, giving it a popping sense of motion and strength.
First, fold two types of strips—one short and one long—into a zigzag shape, then bend the pointed tips and connect them into loops.
Finally, flip each piece over and neaten it to complete the cherry blossom shape, and then string them together to finish the whole garland.
Try varying the intensity of the pink strips and explore arrangements that make the colors look even more vibrant.
Cherry Blossoms in the Moonlit Night

Cherry blossoms at night have a different kind of beauty from those seen during the day, don’t they? In daylight, the blossoms look delicately charming with their cute pink petals.
But under moonlight or illumination, they give off a more mature atmosphere.
Here’s a perfect wall decoration idea featuring night-time cherry blossoms for seniors who love yozakura.
Choose darker construction paper for the background of the cherry trees and blossoms, and add a moon to create a night-sakura scene.
As they make the blossoms, seniors will likely feel the arrival of spring.
Looking at the finished piece, they may appreciate the beauty of night cherry blossoms and even reminisce about their past cherry blossom memories.
Cherry Blossoms and Rapeseed Flowers

Spring is the season when flowers of many colors bloom in profusion; not only cherry blossoms but also rapeseed flowers brighten the landscape.
This is a three-dimensional decoration that depicts a spring scene and the uplifting feeling of rapeseed blossoms blooming around cherry trees.
The key is to make each part with tissue paper, carefully adding wrinkles and shaping them like flowers to create a soft, three-dimensional look.
A sturdy cherry tree with soft pink blossoms, arranged with yellow rapeseed flowers around it, completes the piece.
It might also be nice to emphasize spring by adding decorations like fallen petals and butterflies, not just flowers in bloom.
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 Japanese-style ornament

Cherry trees color Japan’s spring.
Seeing the cherry blossoms in full bloom in parks and other places gives you a sense of seasonal charm, doesn’t it? Let’s make a Japanese-style cherry blossom decoration that captures that feeling of spring.
Use three sheets of origami in different sizes, accordion-fold them, apply glue, and connect them.
Create a three-dimensional cherry blossom out of origami.
Because it’s three-dimensional, some steps are quite detailed.
Older adults who enjoy origami will likely have fun making it.
If the finer parts are difficult, people around them should lend a hand.
Assemble the cherry blossom petals and place them on the accordion-folded origami to finish.
It will look lovely displayed at home.

Cherry blossom mobile

How about using those toilet paper rolls you’d normally throw away to make a wall decoration? Let me introduce a cherry blossom mobile you can craft.
This project makes the most of the material’s unique properties.
There are two steps: first, crease one side of the toilet paper roll, then slice it into rings.
Magically, each ring takes on the shape of a cherry blossom petal.
After that, just thread them onto twine, and you’re done.
Paint them pink if you like!
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!
