What should I pay attention to when making lanterns?

When making lanterns, we should pay attention to the light quality of materials, the skeleton of lanterns should be light, not too heavy, and the material of paper lanterns should be smooth, not too rough, otherwise it will affect the appearance and lighting effect of lanterns.

When making lanterns, use bamboo, cotton gauze, glossy paper, pigments, etc. You should be prepared first. First, bamboo should be heated with steam for half an hour, and then put in a cool and dry place to dry. It is also important to note that you should not be exposed to strong light. Then, the bamboo skin should be peeled off and cut into appropriate lengths. Depending on the size of the lantern, the size and length are determined.

Lanterns are woven in a cross way. First put the lamp holder in the middle, then tie several circles under the lamp holder and fix it on the lamp wall. After fixing, the lamp holder is completed.

The next thing to do is to coat the surface of the lantern with a layer of cotton gauze, and then add a layer of glossy paper on the outside. Pay attention to dilute the glue or paste evenly when brushing the lamp paper, so as to avoid too many particles and affect the texture of the lantern surface.

Next, put the lanterns in a cool and ventilated place to dry. After the lantern is finished, you can paint or write on the surface of the lantern as you like.
