[For Seniors] Color Your Care Facility’s Spring: Wall Decoration Ideas

Onions and asparagus

#12 Torn-paper collage of onions and asparagus

Onions and asparagus, with their distinctive looks, make perfect motifs for torn-paper collage! The combination of brownish onions and green asparagus creates a natural, stylish vibe.

To express the wrinkled onion skin, the trick is to apply plenty of glue and stick the paper down while scrunching it to form creases.

For asparagus, adding purplish tones in addition to green elevates the look.

Using newspapers or ads gives the piece even more character, so give it a try!

Tulip wreath

[Origami] How to Make a Tulip Wreath

Tulips are one of the flowers that color the spring season, and their rich variety of hues conveys the excitement of spring.

This is a wreath that captures that springtime joy by arranging colorful tulips on a circular base.

It’s recommended to make the wreath base in green to evoke leaves; create triangular pieces and insert adjacent pieces into the gaps to form a circle.

Then just add tulips and other decorations to the base to finish.

To make the tulips really stand out, it’s important to use folds to give them a three-dimensional look.

Tulip field and butterflies

[Easy] How to make spring-colored tulips and butterflies 💐 Spring wall decorations [3D origami] Also great for graduation and school entrance ceremonies 🌸 DIY How to make paper tulips. Origami. Paper flower

Tulips are one of the flowers that represent spring.

Many older adults probably think of tulips when they think of spring flowers.

So let’s make lots of origami tulips and decorate an entire wall.

Cut two sheets of origami paper roughly in half, then fold each piece in half again.

Cut them into petal shapes and glue them together.

Tulips come in many colors, so try making them in the colors your seniors prefer.

Attach the stems and leaves you’ve made to the tulip flowers to complete them.

If you also make butterflies out of origami and add them, it will enhance the spring atmosphere.

Nemophila

[Origami] Easy and Cute Nemophila Folding Method ◇ Origami Nemophila Flower — Spring Blue Flower ◇

Nemophila, with its gentle blue blossoms and petite size, softly colors the spring season.

This project recreates nemophila flowers with origami, combining pieces to bring out their delicate charm.

Fold the paper finely toward the center to form five petals, then stack and assemble them to create the nemophila bloom.

Adding small touches—like staggering the layers during assembly or slightly bending the front edges—helps create a three-dimensional look.

Lining up flowers in different shades to make a gradient also seems like a lovely idea.

Bee

[Origami] Easy and Cute Bee Folding Tutorial / Origami Bee Honeybee Insect Spring Origami

April, when we can feel the warmth, is also the time when insects become active.

It’s a season when many flowers bloom, so you’ll often see bees flying around fields and meadows.

Bees can seem scary because they sting, but how about cute honeybees? Some older adults might enjoy folding them with origami.

We’ll fold the face and body using separate sheets of paper.

Giving the overall shape a round look will make the piece feel cuter.

Add antennae and wings, and don’t forget to draw the black stripes that are characteristic of bees.

You can display it on the wall together with flower crafts, or attach it to other pieces like a wreath—both are recommended.

Rose message stand

[Super Easy] Anyone Can Make Felt Roses * #dayservice #daycare #outpatientrehab #eldercare #seniors #crafts

Many types of roses bloom from mid-May to early June, and they’re often strongly associated with a sense of glamour.

This craft project lets you capture that glamour by making a rose out of felt and turning it into a message stand.

Cut a slit in the center of a long, narrow piece of felt, tuck one end into the slit to create overall wrinkles, and then roll it up to form the shape of a rose.

Finally, attach the flower and leaf pieces to a stand made by combining a part that holds a message with a cork, and you’re done.

You can create originality by varying the number of roses you attach and the color combinations.

Rose wall hanging

How to make rose flowers and leaves #dayservice #daycare #daycareforolderadults #dayrehab #caregiving #olderadults #easycrafts #craftactivity #rose #rollingcoloredpaper

We’d like to introduce an original rose wall decoration made by rolling paper.

Prepare colored paper for the flowers and leaves.

For the flower, take a strip of colored paper cut thinly: randomly pleat (accordion-fold) two-thirds of the strip, leaving the remaining one-third unpleated.

Starting from the unpleated end, roll the paper; when you finish rolling, glue the end to secure it, and the flower is complete.

For the leaves, similarly roll thin strips of colored paper from one end, glue to secure, then pinch and shape them with your fingers.

For the stem, cut a long, narrow strip and lightly roll it to add a gentle curve.

Arrange and glue the flowers, stems, and leaves onto your choice of backing or base, balancing the layout, and you’re done in no time! Since there are no difficult steps, this craft can also be used as finger dexterity training in senior care facilities.
