The first thing: find an empty mineral water bottle. From beginning to end, cut the water bottle into a circle along the stare blankly.

Take out four plastic rings, intersect each other, insert them together, and find the position with tape. Then punch holes up and down in each circle, cross them, and wear them with a needle and thread to fix them. It became a plastic ball. Colour the ball with red acrylic pigment. When it is dry, apply it a second time and repeat it two or three times to make the red color bright, uniform and full.

Dry thoroughly after painting. In order to prevent the desktop from being dirty, put a piece of toilet paper on it when operating. Fold a square piece of yellow paper in half horizontally. Stick it on the yellow bottle cap with the bottle cap facing up. Stick it under the little red ball with super glue. Cut the yellow paper into small strips. This is the ear of a lantern.

Glue another yellow bottle cap to the red ball with super glue, face up. Make a small twist with hemp rope and stick it on the bottle cap. So lanterns can be hung up. The little lantern is ready, isn't it cute?

Lovely little lanterns can set off the festive atmosphere no matter where they are hung. Do you want to make some during the Spring Festival?

Advice to friends:

When you cut the plastic ring, you must cut it flat.

It took me a long time to figure out a way to fix it with a needle and thread. It works best.

Repeat it several times when coloring, which is the most uniform.
