Ni hao bloggers,
This week is Chinese Language Week and Eva and I will teach you how to make a Chinese Lantern.
Steps:
- Get paper and scissors to use (coloured paper is better then normal paper)
- Cut the bottom edge of the paper (at the dotted line). This will be the future handle.
- Fold the paper in half “hamburger style” (at the solid line).
- Fold the paper in half along solid line
- Cut along dotted lines through both sides of the paper. Make sure to stop before you get to the end of the paper to keep the strips all connected.
- Starting from the folded crease, cut along the dotted lines.
- Unfold the paper and loop both edges together. Seal edges on both ends with clear tape (or a stapler).
- Seal both ends with tape.
- Tape or staple on your handle.
-
- Optional: Decorate and hang as desired!
Thank you for looking or trying making these paper lanterns!
