12 Feng makes lanterns

1. Preparation materials: red envelopes 12, 6 beaded flowers, lugs 1, and red silk thread 40 cm long.

Second, then fold a red envelope, as shown below. First, we will fold the waste square seal horizontally and vertically, and there will be a cross-shaped crease in the center of the seal. Then, we will fold the four corners of the seal to the same side of the seal and align them with the crease in the center (to ensure that the four corners of the fold are the same size). One needs to treat six seals in the same way.

Third, fold all the red envelopes in turn and stick them one by one.

Fourth, turn it upside down and clamp it with staples.

Five and a half and two and a half are all made in the same way.

6. Arrange four of them in a cross shape, nail adjacent folding corners together in pairs as the bottom of the lantern, and then use four of them as the top of the lantern; Step 3, connect the top and bottom of the lantern with the remaining two envelopes; Finally, pass the rope through the top and bottom of the lantern and decorate it again, and it is finished. Finally, glue them together in turn, including the tassels at the bottom. Such a fish lamp made by Feng is finished.

How to determine interest:

In the Qing dynasty, there was no gift seal. Every holiday, cut a piece of red paper into small squares, and then seal the copper wallet in the red paper. So today, many old people still regard red paper as a synonym for profit.
