What you'll do
Imagine Your Lantern
Before we start, have a little think about where your lantern might live after the workshop. Will it hang from the ceiling, sit on a table or become a little artwork in the corner of your room?
This can help you think about the size, placement and direction of your design. Or forget all of that and go completely freehand, free mind—it’s your artwork!
Find Your Starting Point
There’s no one way to start. You can sketch your whole design on paper first, choose a colour palette and see where it takes you, or pick from our collection of shapes and templates to trace and mix and match.
We’ll have pencils, markers, paper and plenty of references ready for you. You’re also welcome to bring in your own inspiration.
Trace, Cut and Play
Once you have an idea, choose your tissue paper, trace your shapes and start cutting.
Try different sizes, move things around and layer colours together before deciding where everything should go. Nothing needs to be stuck down straight away, so this is your time to play around!
Bring Your Lantern to Life
Happy with your design? Time to get messy.
We’ll show you how to apply PVA glue, place your tissue paper onto the lantern and gently brush another layer over the top to help everything sit nicely on the surface.
If you’ve used markers in your design, we’ll also show you how to work around them so the colours don’t bleed when they meet the glue.
Take Your Artwork Home
And that’s it—your very own paper lantern!
We’ll have a little moment at the end to see everyone’s creations and take some photos, or you’re welcome to head off whenever yours is finished.
Your lantern doesn’t need to be completely dry before you take it home, but don’t fold it down until it’s fully dry, otherwise all your beautiful tissue paper might stick together.
