Brighten up your winter classroom! A collection of recommended wall decoration ideas (121–130)
kotatsu
When you think of winter in Japan, it’s all about the kotatsu and tangerines! Let’s make these classic winter items with origami.
All you need are origami paper, glue, and stickers.
Fold a 15 cm square of origami paper into a trapezoid to create the kotatsu base, then cover it with a tabletop made from a 7.5 cm square.
For the tangerines, take a 2.5 cm × 3 cm piece of origami paper, fold it into quarters, and fold the corners in so it looks round.
Stick a small green round sticker on the top, and your tiny tangerine is complete! Finally, place the tangerines on the kotatsu.
If you also make a little animal warming itself inside the kotatsu, children will be even more delighted.
Daruma
Let’s try making smiling Seven Lucky Gods daruma out of origami.
These auspicious deities come in a colorful set of seven.
If you make them all and display them, they’ll brighten up your room.
Vary their facial expressions a little as you draw them, and you’ll end up with a fun and cute set of Seven Lucky Gods.
It would also be nice to bring what you’ve made and enjoy a lively viewing party together.
This cozy, three-dimensional wall decoration of Seven Lucky Gods daruma is especially auspicious for year-end and New Year’s.
With their beaming smiles, it feels like lots of good fortune will come your way.
Christmas hanging ornaments
Seeing rounded, three-dimensional Christmas ornaments gives you a warm feeling, doesn’t it? In this hanging decoration project, we’ll make stars, holly, Santa hats, bells, and more.
You’ll glue together halves of origami paper to form each piece, and the key is to fold them in a way that creates a three-dimensional shape.
No matter which shape you’re making, it’s important to sketch the outline first so you can picture how it will look once cut.
Finally, attach each part to a string and arrange them on the wall in a triangular shape—like a Christmas tree—which is a lovely way to display them.
Christmas tree
For children, the quintessential winter event is surely Christmas.
Christmas-themed wall decorations like wreaths and garlands create a sense of anticipation and excitement.
Elaborate crafts are of course fun, but even easy-to-make wall decor—such as folding and cutting colored construction paper to create a Christmas tree shape and hanging it up—can fill a room with Christmas colors.
It’s a perfect winter idea that makes a beloved holiday even more festive.

Santa and the Reindeer
“I’m bad at drawing, so I can’t make cute wall decorations!” Do you ever feel that way? Drawing Santa Claus or reindeer can be pretty tricky.
But don’t worry! If you download free templates, anyone can make adorable papercrafts.
Just cut out construction paper according to the template and glue the parts together, and your Christmas decoration will be ready in no time! Another great idea is to pre-cut the pieces and finish assembling them together with the kids.
Tree and snowflakes
If you want to add a festive touch to your walls, we recommend this tree and snowflake design.
This idea is made by layering multiple sheets of origami, cutting them into a tree shape, and sticking them on.
Because different parts of the origami are visible depending on the angle, a single decoration offers many appealing looks—that’s one of its charms.
As shown in the video, adding small items as accents will make it even more vibrant, so be sure to give it a try.
heart
Let’s make a vibrant, colorful heart ornament you can hang on the wall.
By changing the colors, sizes, and materials, you can enjoy a variety of styles.
The method is very simple: with just an A4 sheet of paper, you can create a basic heart ornament.
Cut colored paper into a heart shape, accordion-fold it symmetrically from left to right, then tape the center and adjust the shape to finish.
Attach a thread so it can be hung, and you’ll have a cute decoration for your room.
It’s also perfect for party decor and occasions like Valentine’s Day.
