This is how you make the lantern:
First paint the wooden spatulas as you like. For the base plate, place eight spatulas next to each other and connect them with two spatulas running across.
Lay two "houses" (one square + roof) and glue them together with hot glue. Glue them opposite each other to the base plate. Stabilise the two open sides of the lantern with two wooden spatulas each.
Measure the openings on the four sides and cut the tracing paper accordingly.
Stamp the motifs on and colour them with fibre paints after they have dried.
Stick the papers into the openings from the inside with double-sided adhesive tape.
Paint fence elements and decorate with Iceland moss and mushrooms on the lantern.
Cut small pennants (triangles) from paper and glue them to the warp yarn with some craft glue. Decorate the roof with this pennant chain.
Bend the lantern hanger and hang the lantern on it.
Shorten the lantern stick if necessary and wrap the handle with warp yarn.
The lantern can be lit with an LED tea light or a string of lights.
