Chinas traditional festivals such as the Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival are all decorated with lanterns. Sharing a tutorial on making Chinese style lanterns using cardboard, cylindrical design, with hollow window grille pattern, very beautiful and festive~
Material preparation: colored cardboard, transparent white paper, window punch, glass bottle, glue, etc.
Here we use red cardboard, cut it into a rectangle and use a hole punch to make a window grille pattern on one long side.
Window grilles should be arranged neatly.
Similarly make a symmetrical hollow pattern on the other long side.
Put the transparent white paper on the colored cardboard, cover the hollow pattern, and stick it on.
Roll up the cardboard and paste it into a tube shape.
Take out an unwanted glass bottle, fix the candle in the middle, and put the paper tube on it.
The beautiful Chinese style lanterns are ready, and I can’t help but look forward to the festival coming soon~
