The custom of the lantern festival

1. First, take a rectangular piece of cardboard. We draw a line segment of 1 cm at both ends of the graph.

2. Then make a mark on the cardboard between the two line segments every 1cm, and then draw a grid as shown in the figure.

3. Then, on the basis of the second step, cut the reticle of each grid along the reticle with wallpaper knife.

4. Then fold both ends of the paper into creases.

5. Fold the paper strips at both ends of the rectangle inward, and stick the overlapped two pieces of paper with double-sided tape.

6. Use a thin thread, insert every other note into it, and then tighten the rope at the end to form a picture. This is the inner layer of the lantern.

7. Finally, fold the outer layer of the lantern outward along the middle position and press out the crease. Tie a red rope at the top of the lantern. Lantern Festival lanterns will be finished.
