You Will Need (8 things)

  • 1 Milk Carton
  • Glue Stick
  • Tissue Paper
  • Razor Blade
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Sharpie you dont have to have this but it helps!
  • Ruler not really needed but helps
  • Hole Punch & Wire (Optional)

Steps (7 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Ok first you cut open a milk carton,then you trim off the house part from the top so that you can have one side as your open top.

  2. 2

    Second paste the entire carton then apply tissue paper all over one side. YOu can also use news paper if your going for a more mod style, its just as fun.

  3. 3

    Alright now you get the handy dandy ruler and make the squares you want to cut out,

  4. 4

    turn the carton over and cut the squares out with a blade...

  5. 5

    Now paste the other paper(origami paper)or wax paper onto the carton...the opposite said from the tissue paper side. (just use a little paste.)

  6. 6

    Now glue gun or super glue the carton back together. Let it sit for a while and then there you go there's the lantern. You can place a candle or a light inside and if wanted you can use some wire and a hole punch to add a hanging piece.

  7. 7

    Now hang it up!!
