Butterfly flower hair clip

[Summer Vacation Craft] Butterfly & Flower Clips – also lovely as interior decor

Let’s make adorable butterfly and flower clips.

In the video, the butterfly part uses store-bought pieces, but you can also cut your own from sturdy materials like construction paper.

First, decorate the butterfly freely with colored pencils or beads.

Then simply use a hot glue gun to attach the butterfly to a clip, and you’re done! You can make the flowers the same way: punch out lots of flower shapes from origami or construction paper, layer them, and glue them to a clip.

They’re perfect not only for holding books and notebooks, but also as cute interior decorations.

These bright, cheerful accessories will liven up your mood—give them a try!

Kaleidoscope in an ice cup

[Elementary School Summer Crafts / Independent Research] 🌻 Kaleidoscope with Ice Cream Cups

A kaleidoscope where you can enjoy geometric, mysterious pattern changes.

Let’s make such a kaleidoscope using an ice cream cup.

First, use nail polish remover to erase the letters and designs from two ice cream cup lids.

Next, cut aluminum foil to your preferred length, fold it three times to make a long, narrow rectangle, then cut it into shorter pieces, roll each into a tube, and secure with tape.

Make many small tubes and pack them tightly into the ice cream cup without gaps.

Then put on a lid and sprinkle beads or pieces of translucent origami paper cut into small shapes on top.

Finally, place the other lid on top and tape it in place to finish.

Point it toward the sunlight and spin it around to play.

Sunlight enhances their beauty! Let me introduce an idea for stained-glass-style wind chimes.

On hot summer days, just having a wind chime with a cool, refreshing look can make you feel breezy.

This time, let’s make a stained-glass wind chime using transparent origami paper.

You’ll need transparent origami paper, a plastic cup, an empty capsule, double-sided tape, an awl, string, and so on.

Cutting the transparent origami into your favorite shapes and sticking them on to create a design is a process you can enjoy together with children.

Umbrella sun catcher

[Easy with 100-yen items] The umbrella sun catcher is unbelievably beautiful! #shorts

Let me introduce a soothing umbrella sun catcher that even adults will want to make.

Gather aurora cut cloth, a plush stand, needle-nose pliers, beads, glue, and double-sided tape, then let’s get started.

Draw eight circles on the aurora cut cloth and cut them out.

Fold each circle in half twice and secure it with double-sided tape.

Make the remaining circle pieces the same way.

Use double-sided tape to attach all eight pieces together to form an umbrella shape.

Thread beads onto a plush stand that has been cut in half using needle-nose pliers, then attach it to the center of the umbrella as the handle—and you’re done.
