  1. Production steps:
    1. Prepare a rectangular red card paper (I use an expired old month card) to make a beautiful little lantern.
    2, leave 0.5 ~ 1.0cm on each side of the card paper, divide several parallel lines according to the equal division, and then cut it with a stopper.
    3, roll the card paper arc.
    4, pair of stickers, cut the corners into thin strips for spikes, and then stick the beautiful little lanterns made by the line rope.
    Extension information:
    Once the Lantern Festival arrives, the lantern is popular. If you have time, it is also a good idea to make a lantern by yourself. If you can't do the "big blocks" sold on the street, you can't find any materials such as steel wires and steel plates, then use bamboo strips, rice paper, and pen and ink to make a simple paper lantern. The materials and processes of hand -made paper lanterns are very simple. They can both design their favorite patterns and add a lot of fun to the festival.
    The first step, make skeleton. The simple shape of the paper lantern is a cube or cylindrical body. It is best to use the bending bamboo branches or bamboo skin to form a framework. If it is not easy to find, the slender hard cardboard and the bamboo sticks for barbecue can also be lacking, but the strong degree and flexibility will be lacking, but it is also a very good decoration in the room.
    The material
    1. Put the bamboo in the vapor room (or heated half an hour), then remove it, and dry it in a cool place, but it must not be too dry or in the strong light.
    2, planing skin tailoring: remove the rough epidermis, cut the length required for bamboo strips, and depend on the size of the lantern. The skeleton woven the light rack in the middle of the lamp rack. Buy a few pieces of white, red ordinary rice paper or sprinkled gold rice paper in the four treasure shops of the essay, and cut into the pattern of the length and width that conforms to the lantern skeleton.
    The calligraphy, painting, and paper -cutting can all show the style on the small lanterns. After being good, you can also use the narrow strip of imitation paper upper and lower edges, which look more elegant, much like an ancient palace lamp. If you are not good at calligraphy and painting, there is a simple way for reference. Use a piece of paper to draw the words you want on the post, and then overlap this thin paper and dark red rice paper together, and dig the handwriting with a single -edged blade. Remove the thin paper, and the hollowed handwriting appeared on the red propaganda paper.
    This use of white rice paper to make the light body, the red mission paper pastes inside, the candlelight or light is mapped from the hollowed out, the effect is quite beautiful. If the light source is placed indoors, you only need to order a ordinary candle in the lantern; if you want to carry it out, it is best to use a light bulb and battery to make a simple circuit. Perhaps it looks a little rough, but at the Lantern Festival, click on a self -mounted paste to the diluted paste on the surface of the skeleton, and then mount the cotton gauze. Then use a brush to dip the paste, and finally paste the single light paper for the lanterns (if there is no single light paper, fine cotton paper.)
    Note that the brushing brush must be clean, mounted Paper must also be confused without seams to complete the real mounting. Dry the lantern in a cool and ventilated place to dry.
    Painted 1. Painting or clipping: Painted or clipped with the patterns required by the individual, such as characters, eight immortals, flowers and birds, ladies, etc. 2. Writing text: After painting, decide whether to write the text according to the situation. After the text and patterns are completely dry, the lantern is achieved.
