So I have always thought decorating with paper lanterns looked so cool! They add such a neat dynamic to a room or party.
When I was young my mother taught me how to make this type of lantern and I made hundreds of them. I just thought they were so stinkin' neat!
Now I am day dreaming of designing my baby's nursery. Although we are crammed in tight living conditions right now, I still day dream about how I would decorate the nursery and I keep imagining these paper lanterns hung in the nursery. I just think it would look so awesome!
I found a tutorial online to make these paper lanterns. The demonstration shows Christmas paper and I think they would make adorable Christmas decorations too!I figure I will try my hand at making some of these and see how I like them!
