CHRISTMAS LANTERN - Gift, Box, Tree Decoration & Tea-light Holder - Just Cant Wait Any Longer..
These glorious little 3D lanterns make perfect gift boxes for the Christmas table, ornaments for the tree, or if you remove the candle sections in the windows they can also be used as tea light holders. MAKE SURE YOU USE BATTERY POWERED TEA-LIGHTS! You could even add them to a string of tree lights.
They are really easy and fun to make and every kit comes with a picture tutorial included. The finished lantern is approx 14cms high, so ideal for small gifts and there is also a matching gift label that you can hang on a ribbon from the holder at the hanger on top.
This poor little cutie was singing carols and waiting for Santa but fell asleep! His stocking is hanging up tho so he shouldn't be disappointed!

I printed the lantern onto 160gsm card and the others onto 200gms photo paper and cut out all the pieces.
I scored and folded as required and assembled the lantern using a wet glue, adding the decoupage using foam pads.
A super hanging piece for the tree which will look brilliant with a batter-operated tea light.
