Handmade crafts (1–10)
bath bomb
Did you know you can make your own bath bombs? All you need are baking soda, citric acid, and cornstarch.
Mix them together, then add a scent with essential oils.
Next, add some food coloring for a pop of color.
After that, mix well while gradually adding water, and let it dry.
That completes the basics.
From there, decorate as you like or try molding them into unique shapes.
You might even create things you’d never find in stores!
snack refrigerator
As a unique gift idea, let’s introduce a “snack refrigerator.” This involves making a storage box that looks like a mini fridge.
You’ll finish it by covering an empty box with construction paper, adding drawers, and so on.
If you incorporate designs featuring things the recipient likes—such as anime characters—they might appreciate it even more.
Once it’s done, fill it with snacks to complete the gift.
The snacks will be eaten and disappear, but the container can be used again and again.
herbarium
A special-day gift idea! Here are some herbarium inspirations.
A herbarium is a decorative piece made by preserving flowers and leaves in oil inside a glass bottle.
They’re popular gifts because they require no maintenance! Let’s make a herbarium that keeps flowers and leaves looking beautiful for a long time.
You’ll need herbarium oil, a container, stickers, clear sheets, and hydrangea and baby’s breath.
It’s great that you can get the materials at a 100-yen shop, too.
Rearranging the flowers and leaves changes the mood and makes it really fun!
small accessory case
Do you have a small storage box at home? You can keep it on your desk for stationery, or store toys and cards—there are so many ways to use it.
So, let’s make a handy little storage box.
The main material is a milk carton.
Turn the milk carton on its side and cut out one of the side panels.
Then decorate it.
Try covering it with paper or fabric so it doesn’t look like a milk carton.
Next, use the piece you cut out to make two lids, and it’s done.
The nice, compact size is another plus.
Snack box
Perfect for a surprise gift! Here are some ideas for a candy box.
For children, sweets are a source of fun and joy, and many kids have their favorites.
This time, let’s pick the child’s favorite treats and make a candy box.
You’ll need three lidded boxes of different sizes, your chosen candies, and a utility knife.
Each time they open a box, they’ll discover more of their favorite treats, creating a sense of excitement—highly recommended as a gift for kids!
