Yarn Winding! Bagworm Ornament

[Autumn Craft] Yarn-Wrapped Bagworm Ornament

Let’s try making a bagworm craft that also lets you have fun with yarn.

First, glue colored construction paper onto white construction paper and cut it into an egg shape.

Make small slits around the edge, then wind the yarn around and around, tucking it into the slits as you go.

Wrap gently so the paper doesn’t warp, but firmly enough that the yarn doesn’t loosen and come off.

Once you’ve finished wrapping the yarn, decorate the case with round stickers, draw the face with a pen, add a touch of pink to the cheeks with blush, and you’re done!

Fall foliage viewing in your room!

Cut a sheet of origami paper into four equal strips (tanzaku) with scissors and separate them.

You’ll use only three, so set one aside for another craft.

Fold each of the three pieces in half vertically, then in half horizontally, in that order.

For just one of the three pieces, cut along the crease made by the horizontal fold to split it in two.

Take one of these halves, fold it so its length is halved, and round off the corner on the side where the layers are not connected.

Insert the remaining uncut piece between the others, and make a matching curved cut slightly above the first curve.

Cut the remaining two pieces in the same way, staple them together at the base, and then fan open the layers—the shape will look like a maple leaf.

Origami Squirrel Arrangement

@poccle

I tweaked the cup fold ✨ and came up with a cute way to fold a squirrel 🌰❤️ProductionOrigamiOrigami folding instructionsOrigami playChildcareNursery teacher / Childcare worker#Nursery school#KindergartenKindergarten TeacherorigamiSquirrelNursery school teacher#Childcare CraftingAutumn Crafts#AtHomePlay

Fold the origami paper into a triangle, then fold both side corners diagonally upward toward the center to make a cup shape.

Flip the origami so top and bottom are reversed, and fold the corners you just made diagonally upward to form the squirrel’s ears, then turn the paper over.

Fold up a small portion of the top layer at the bottom corner, then roll-fold it further to create the white belly.

Cut into the remaining single layer and shape it into the tail.

Draw the face with a pen and add patterns on the body to finish.

Making some acorns to display alongside it will help create an even more autumnal feel.

Cute mushrooms on the wall, too.

Fold the origami paper in half into a square twice to make creases, then open it.

Fold the top left and right corners in to meet at the center.

Turn the paper over, fold the bottom edge up to match the horizontal crease, then turn it over again and fold the left and right sides in along the vertical creases.

Fold the top triangular part downward, then use that crease to make a pleat fold.

Squash the pleated sections from both sides into triangles to form the mushroom’s cap and stem.

Finally, tuck the remaining corners inward to round out the shape, and you’re done.

Drawing a face on it makes it even cuter.

Grapes made with origami

Open the origami after folding it into a triangle, and place it so the crease runs horizontally.

Fold the two left edges in to meet the crease, then fold the right corner toward the center.

If the origami forms an isosceles triangle, the base for the grapes is complete.

Apply double-sided tape to the front and attach crumpled tissue paper to represent the grape berries.

Finally, glue on a stem made from construction paper to finish.

Using several shades of the same color for the tissue paper gives a vibrant look.

Switch to green to make muscat grapes.

Seventh Song – RADWIMPS

After folding the origami paper into a triangle twice to crease it, open it up and fold the top corner down to the center.

Turn the paper over, fold the bottom corner up to the center, then make another valley fold.

Turn the paper over again, and fold the top edges inward from both sides so they meet along the vertical crease.

Fold up the sections sticking out from both sides of the triangle, tuck the left and right corners inward, and shape it into a chestnut to finish.

Draw patterns on the white part of the origami and use it as a piece for wall decorations or as a little accent in your crafts.

Perfect for autumn! Dragonfly origami

First, fold the origami paper into a triangle twice and into a square twice to make crease lines.

Open it, then fold the bottom corner to the center line, and use the creases to collapse the paper into a square base.

Squash the two white triangular flaps showing on the front into squares to the left and right, then fold the two outer edges in to meet the center crease to shape the dragonfly’s wings.

From here, use the remaining sections to form the head and body.

There are several steps, but the work itself is simple.

Fold carefully, one step at a time.

Once you’re done, stick on round stickers with black pupils to finish your cute dragonfly.
