How to make lanterns out of cardboard?

The practice of handmade lanterns:

Preparation materials: red and yellow paper 1 piece, scissors, stapler, white latex or glue stick 1 piece, red hairy roots 1 piece.

Step 1: Prepare the required materials and tools.

Step 2: Fold the red paper horizontally, and use safety scissors to cut the red paper at the same distance from the folding place.

Step 3: Fold a small part of the yellow drawing paper in half horizontally and tear it off. Roll up the remaining drawing paper along the long side and fix the opening with a stapler. You can also use white latex or glue stick instead of this stapler.

Step 4: Coat the two long sides of the cut red drawing paper with white latex and wrap it around the yellow straight pipe, as shown in the following figure.

Step 5, paste the slender red paper strip as the lantern handle to complete the making of the small lantern.
