I participated in a vendor fair this fall and one of the items at my booth were these cute Halloween Lanterns.
Aren’t they sweet? I placed a small, cellophane bag with chocolate kisses inside the lanterns for gifting along with a flameless tealight candle. When you remove the candy and insert the flameless candle the lanterns really glow! I show the lanterns in action at the end of my video tutorial below.
This project is probably considered intermediate skill required but only because of the tools used and the folds required. It really is a pretty simple and straight forward project to complete. I’ve included the card stock dimensions along with a list of the products used to create these lanterns below.
Project Recipe
