When it comes to flowers that color spring, cherry blossoms come to mind.
Cherry blossoms are charming and glamorous, and just looking at them makes you feel bright and positive, doesn’t it?
So this time, we’ve gathered ideas for creating wall decorations with a cherry blossom theme—perfect for spring.
From origami to torn-paper art and kirigami, there are plenty of ideas that let you enjoy the making process itself.
Hanging ornaments and garlands are also great to display around entrances and by windows.

flower field mobile
Let’s make it with a paper cup! Here’s an idea for a cute flower-field mobile with fluttering butterflies.
You’ll need a paper cup, scissors, colored construction paper, round stickers, pens, tape, thread, decorative materials, and ribbon.
First, cut six slits evenly around the paper cup.
Open the slits, turn the cup upside down, and round off the tips of the slit sections.
Next, use the colored paper to make butterflies and flowers, and add patterns with round stickers and pens.
Finally, connect the paper cup and the paper motifs with thread, decorate the paper cup, and you’re done!
lily of the valley
A wall decoration of lilies of the valley that are at their best in May.
Attach the leaf pieces and the slender stems that form gentle curves, then apply glue where the flowers will hang.
Make rounded, plump lily-of-the-valley pieces out of construction paper and stick them onto the stems to complete a wall decoration that feels both simple and elegant.
Bright, eye-catching flowers like spring rapeseed blossoms and tulips, or summer sunflowers, are of course lovely, but the slightly understated charm of lilies of the valley is adorable too.
clover
When spring comes, clover spreads across the fields.
The four-leaf clover, a symbol of luck and love, is perfect for wall decorations, too.
First, fold the origami paper into a triangle with the green side facing inward.
As with the crane, open the pocket and flatten it into a square.
Fold the bottom corner up to the center, then fold upward where the creases intersect.
While pinching the center, open it and fold the middle inward.
After that, fold each section back while slightly overlapping them to shape the leaves, and it’s done.
Adding butterflies or flowers alongside makes it feel even more like spring.
Origami cherry blossom garland
Why not decorate your room with a garland of cherry blossoms made from origami? Here’s an idea for a sakura garland created by cutting and linking pieces of origami paper.
Just like when you make an origami star, fold the paper into a pentagon, draw the shape of sakura petals, and cut it out with scissors.
When you unfold it, you’ll have five petals with the same pattern.
Feel free to draw any petal design you like—the surprise when you open it is part of the fun.
To connect them into a garland, make a single cut on one part of each blossom and link them together.
You can connect them horizontally or vertically to create a delightful garland!
Heart flower
A cute heart motif will brighten your mood! Prepare pink origami paper and fold it into a triangle twice.
Next, fold one side of the triangle outward, then fold back the bottom corner.
Draw a half-heart shape—like an ear shape—on the paper with a pencil, and cut along the line with scissors.
Finally, unfold the origami, and a lovely heart pattern will spread out before your eyes.
Seeing the unfolded paper reveal a cut-out heart is sure to get the kids excited!
paper flower
Spring is a season overflowing with glamorous, delicate blossoms.
When it comes to flowers that represent this time of year, cherry blossoms surely come to mind.
There are many ways to enjoy them outdoors—like picnicking under the blooms with family and friends or strolling along cherry-lined paths—but why not bring that delicate beauty into your home as well? With a gently swaying, handmade cherry blossom wall decoration, you can savor the feeling of spring.
Small cherry blossoms fluttering on your walls or windows look absolutely adorable.
Using a paper craft punch for the blossom shapes makes the process easier and more convenient.
Simply attach the punched-out cherry blossoms to ribbons, hang them evenly like curtains, and you’re done.
lease
The wreath motif, called a “wreath,” is a decoration that kids absolutely love! All you need is a piece of pink origami paper about 15 cm by 7 cm.
Accordion-fold it, then keep folding it in a mountain fold.
Round off the ends with scissors and staple the center.
Use that point as the base to fan it out into a circle and open it like petals.
Next, cut yellow origami paper into a ring shape and attach the petals around it—that’s it.
Mixing in other colors like red along with pink will make it even more festive!
