Plum Blossoms and Bush Warbler Wall Decoration

[Spring Craft] Plum Blossoms and Bush Warbler Wall Decoration

Let’s make a plum blossoms and bush warbler wall decoration that will bring a full sense of spring to your room.

Paste washi-pattern origami on a circle-cut piece of thick paper, then attach a square piece of colored paper on top.

On the colored paper, arrange a branch made by rolling craft bands, plum blossoms, and a bush warbler to complete the design.

For the plum blossoms, attach craft ties to flower-shaped construction paper, bend the craft ties to add a three-dimensional effect, then make slits in a craft band, roll it to form the flower’s center, and attach it in the middle.

For the bush warbler, attach a paper-made tail feather to a balled-up tissue and wrap it with colored construction paper.

Plump Strawberry

Paper strawberry decorations! Easy how-to make them. How to make paper strawberry decorations. [Tsukuru-mon]

Spring is the season that overcomes winter and brings abundant harvests, and we find more chances to see colors that feel warm.

This decoration features a strawberry motif that evokes the warmth of spring, layered with leaves for a colorful look.

The key is to crease both the leaf parts and the strawberry parts firmly—create them so they have a three-dimensional feel, then layer them together.

Treat each layered strawberry-and-leaf as a single set, and enhance the sense of depth by experimenting with how you arrange those sets.

Balancing with the background is also an important point for conveying warmth.

[Craft Idea] Bamboo Shoot Crafts (April, Spring) (Senior Recreation) (Childcare/Educational) (Wall Decorations) (Tabletop Decorations) (Creative) (Origami) (Sasa Bamboo) (DIY)

Speaking of spring, it’s the season of bounty after winter, and bamboo shoots are one of the cherished signs of spring.

This decoration involves layering origami to create a three-dimensional bamboo shoot and completing it as a spring scene.

First, roll paper to form the base shape, then layer brown paper for the bamboo shoot.

The key is to add wrinkles before layering—this accentuates softness and depth.

Be mindful of gradients as you layer.

Once the bamboo shoot is finished, place it on the backing paper, add bamboo around it, and your spring scene is complete.
