Handmade method of lanterns

Although lanterns can be bought everywhere now, it is also fun to do it yourself. The following is the hand-made method of lanterns I shared. Let's have a look.

Materials/tools:

Colored cardboard, cotton thread, wrinkled paper, compass, pen, scissors, chopsticks.

Method steps:

1. Draw a circle with a diameter of about 8CM on the back of the paper. The size of the circle determines the size of the lantern, so it depends on everyone's preference. A * * needs 20 circles.

2. Draw equilateral triangles in all circles.

3. After painting, cut off the extended circle for later use. It needs 20 circles, 1 rectangular piece of paper (the lamp ear will be used later).

Glue five circles together to make the bottom of the lantern.

5. Turn the bottom over and stick five more circles on it. From now on, stick a circle in the middle, which is the circle stuck with white double-sided tape in the picture, which is the opposite of the circle just stuck. This constitutes the middle part of the lantern.

6. This is what the middle part looks like after it is glued.

7, semi-finished products, the main body of the lantern came out, and the ears and rods began to be made below.

8. Fold the reserved rectangular paper in half and cut it into spikes.

9. I began to wear lamp ears. The one directly below the lamp socket is the bottom of the lamp. Pass it from bottom to top, put your hand into the lantern, then put the needle back outside and cut it off.

10, cut the thread, make another lamp nail in the same way, and tie the lamp rope with chopsticks, OK! !
