DIY Paper Lantern Embellishments
At CHA last week Deb and I saw some amazing things! I have tons of pictures of cute booths, exhibits, and projects. This project was at the Hambly Screen Prints booth:
Want to know how to make it? Buy a paper lantern from any local store. You can probably find these at a party store, IKEA, or a World Market type store. Purchase your favorite clear overlay sheets (they are hand screened transparencies) and cut to fit each side of the light. Adhere the top with a clear adhesive and you’re good to go! How easy is that? I think it would be fun and easy to change out for different seasons as well. Imagine a spiderweb overlay for Halloween, or a different pattern for the holidays.
*If you don’t have room for a full sized hanging lantern, try this desktop one from World Market:
