Tin cans like this are easy to collect. You only need to nail a few holes on the surface to make a simple and beautiful pattern, and you will have a different lantern in a short time! Friends, do you want to make them at Christmas? Make a homemade lantern for the New Year? If you are interested, come and give it a try by following the steps below!~
Material Tools:
Empty, cleaned canning jars,
Hammer,
Nails or screws,
rag,
Candles (LED tea light candles).
1. Clean the tin can and remove all label residues. Fill the jar with water and place it in the freezer of your refrigerator. The ice in the jar will prevent the surface from denting when you punch holes in the jar.
Once frozen, lay flat on a kitchen towel. If you fold the edges of the rag over, it will help prevent the can from rolling.
2. Use a hammer and nails/screws to punch holes in the side of the jar. You can choose any pattern you like, but nothing too complicated. It is recommended to print out the pattern and stick it on the tin can before punching holes.
3. After punching the hole, put the tin can into warm water and let the ice melt.
4. If children want to walk around with lanterns, for safety reasons, it is recommended to use flameless LED candles~
