I started by making a basic frame using bamboo. The thinner bamboo can be found in any garden shop, the thicker ones were not so easy and I was rather lucky to find them at a local novelty shop. The platform is so I could place a candle and added a large block of wood at the bottom to help keep the lantern afloat. |

Normally you would use paper to wrap around the lantern but I figured that would be much to fragile. I used curtain fabric instead, it was a little heavy but I liked the floral pattern. |
