ABCW: Japanese Lanterns

For the past one year, I have been a lot in DIY's and off late I am quite obsessed about Japanese paper lanterns.
They always fascinate me. Simple paper mesh looks so pretty when its hung with a light bulb in the corner of a room.

I did try to make one for myself trice, but it was a failed experiment. Nonetheless I am going to make one for myself soon.

Putting up a few pictures from Google for inspiration

  3. Aren't they pretty? I can never distinguish the Japanese ones from the Chinese ones.

  4. These are lovely! There has been a growing fad to put lit candles inside these types of paper lanterns and set them adrift up into the sky. It took one group in WIsconsin almost lighting an entire woods on fire to help me decide to NEVER try it!

    My daughter had a blue paper lantern, safely lit by a bulb, on her ceiling throughout high school. This took me right back, so many thanks! Saw you at ABC. Amy
