3D craft ideas made with drawing paper and colored construction paper

animal hat

Let's make your favorite animal with just one sheet of construction paper! Easy animal hat

Why not make a cute animal hat out of construction paper? With a bit of creativity, you can make a rabbit, panda, elephant, and more.

First, attach two sheets of construction paper horizontally and fold them in half.

Then fold it twice vertically and into thirds horizontally, and unfold.

You should have creases forming 8 columns across and 3 rows down.

Cut off the leftmost column to make it 7 columns wide.

Fold the paper back up and cut the top two-thirds into an arch shape.

Open the paper and attach a pair of rubber bands linked together at both ends.

Gather the arched section and staple it in place, then add the animal’s face and ear parts to finish!

Flower

How to Make Paper Anemone Flowers – DIY Guide

Why not make realistic flowers and enjoy the seasonal atmosphere? In this idea, you combine folded or cut pieces to create lifelike blooms.

First decide which flower you want to make, then look for helpful websites or videos for reference.

Most flowers can be recreated, so feel free to choose whatever you like.

You can also make multiple stems and arrange them like a bouquet for extra fun.

Another appealing aspect of this idea is that you can show your individuality—such as by choosing color combinations that don’t exist in real life.

Daruma

[Origami New Year] “Bad-Luck-Clearing Daruma” New Year’s decoration, handmade wall decoration, origami, preschool craft, senior care recreation — How to make a Japanese Daruma

Let me share a Daruma craft idea that’s perfect for New Year’s decorations.

First, flatten a toilet paper roll and make three cuts from one edge with scissors.

On the cut sections, glue thin strips of yellow, orange, and purple origami or colored paper, and cover the remaining areas with red paper.

Wrap it all the way around.

Then reshape the toilet paper roll back into a round cylinder.

You can leave the red area as is.

Make a Daruma face from another piece of paper, attach it to the red area, then add the Daruma’s patterns below the face—and you’re done! Try making and displaying them in different colors!

Lucky Star

All you need are construction paper and scissors! How to make a lucky star

Let’s make a cute, puffy lucky star! You can make this with just construction paper.

First, cut the construction paper into a strip and tie a single overhand knot near one end.

Don’t pull it too tight—fold it neatly so a small pentagon shape forms, then flatten it gently.

Tuck the short end into the knot to hide it.

Next, wrap the remaining long end around the pentagon, following the edges as you go.

When you’ve wrapped it all, tuck the end into the knot again.

Gently press each side of the pentagon inward and pinch the corners to shape it.

Your lucky star is complete!

basket

[One Sheet of Drawing Paper] Small Item Basket - Easter [Easy Craft] Cute Project

Why not try making a basket out of construction paper? First, make a loop from a strip of construction paper.

Then prepare eight strips that are half the length of the paper used for the loop.

Cross two strips to form a plus sign and attach their ends to the outside of the loop.

Cross another two strips and attach them to fill the gaps.

Attach the remaining four strips in the same way, but this time, attach them to the inside of the loop.

Prepare two long strips and weave them through the gaps between the papers attached to the loop, alternating over, under, over.

Finally, add a handle and you’re done!
