Handmade lanterns for putting candles.

Manufacturing steps of hand-made lanterns capable of putting candles:

1. Prepare a waste paper box of suitable size, which can be a packaging box for wholesale drinks. Hollow out the periphery and the top, leaving only one side intact. In addition, find some gift wrapping paper, or beautiful expired calendars, and carve some beautiful hollow patterns on them with a paper cutter.

2. Cut out some carved patterns on the gift wrapping paper according to the appropriate distance and density, cover the carved place with transparent plastic film on one side of the wrapping paper, and stick the film on the wrapping paper with transparent adhesive. Plastic film can be cut with some transparent plastic bags or plastic wrap.

3. Wrap the waste paper bags with wrapping paper and stick them with glue or double-sided tape, leaving only the top opening as the entrance.

Put a plastic tray in the moon cake box, tie a pin under it, and insert a short candle in the pin. When in use, the candle is lit outside, and the lit candle together with the tray is put into the lantern cover, which can be placed on the table or hung as a Chinese New Year decoration.

5, in order to look good, take a red envelope and cut it into tassels, roll it up and tie it with a red line. Punch holes symmetrically up and down on the lantern, tie wires on it and hang tassels on the bottom, and the lantern is finished. Turn off the light, light a flickering candle inside, and the pattern outside the lantern is reflected on the wall. Isn't it romantic?
