Here’s how to make a banana tart toy that can be used both as a trinket box and for pretend play.

All you need is a round empty cheese box and some felt.

First, use a hot glue gun to apply evenly spaced vertical lines around the side of the box lid.

Once dry, attach brown felt with double-sided tape to create the distinctive tart base.

Cover the top’s packaging surface with white felt, then prepare three long, thin strips of white felt and braid them; glue the braid along the edge.

Arrange felt bananas on top, paint the bottom part of the box brown, and you’re done.

paper cup hat

If you’re looking for a craft idea that can double as a decoration, how about making a paper cup hat? Cut off the rim of a paper cup, then leave about one-third from the bottom intact and make many vertical slits starting from the rim side.

Spread the slit sections outward, then weave them by folding them up diagonally from the rim side to form the brim of the hat.

Decorate it with your favorite ribbon and you’re done.

The color and pattern of the paper cup will become the hat’s design as-is, so choosing the cups is part of the fun, too.

Cute paper cup finger puppets

[Easy Craft] Using Only Paper Cups! How to Make Cute Finger Puppets [Scissor Practice] [Cute]
Cute paper cup finger puppets

Here’s an idea for making finger puppets using paper cups.

The example shown here is a dog finger puppet, but with a little creativity you can make all kinds of animals.

Once you have a paper cup, cut four vertical slits along the side and remove the excess parts while shaping the dog’s ears and the rings that go around your fingers.

The bottom of the cup will be the face, so draw any expression you like with a pen.

Paper cups come in various colors, so using different colors might expand your range of expression.

Cute glasses with moles

[Craft] Super Easy and Cute Pipe Cleaner Glasses! Finished in 5 Minutes! How to Make Them [Straw]
Cute glasses with moles

Let’s make cute glasses using pipe cleaners and straws.

First, think about the shape of the glasses you want to make—try sketching it out.

Round, square, star-shaped—anything you like is fine.

Once you’ve decided on the shape, form it with the pipe cleaners.

A single pipe cleaner isn’t very sturdy, so twist two together into one before shaping.

After the frame is done, thread straws onto the parts that go over your ears, and you’re finished.

If you use the accordion section of the straw over your ears, the glasses are less likely to slip off.
