My children made these for Chinese New Year at school and they loved making them so much we had them hanging in the house for weeks afterwards. They also make great decorations for parties held in the house or the garden.
Make a Chinese Lantern from paper or card.
You will need:
Coloured card ( A4 is a good size for this but you can make them any size you want)
Ribbon/ string or a length of card aprox 2cm x 30cm (length of A4 card for the handle in the same coloured card as the lantern or a colour to match the decorations)
Pencil
Ruler
Scissors
PVA glue, double sided sticky-tape or staples
Extra card, glitter, sequins etc for decoration
String/thread
Garden cane/bamboo
