How to make a lantern #2- a visual lesson

You need lots of glue to make lots of lanterns. I have a caraffe. Water it down to 3:1 glue to water ratio. Blow up a balloon to about the size of your lantern. Paint the balloon with the watery glue.
Cover the lantern with squares of tissue paper.
With the paint brush, flatten down the tissue paper around the balloon.
Add another of tissue paper and smooth down with your paint brush again.
Continue to repeat tissue paper and glue steps until you have 4-5 layers.
Decorate the balloon with cut out tissue shapes ect..
Hang to dry.
When dry, pop ballon and pull gently from the sides of lantern. using a hole punch, punch two holes on opposite sides. String a ribbon through each hole and tie. Hang on a stick or carry and illuminate with a small tea light.
