Christmas Lanterns


Christmas Lanterns - an easy christmas craft

Christmas Lanterns: beautiful for outdoor Christmas lighting.
  1. Take a tin can, such as a tomato sauce or soup can.
  2. Punch holes around the top using either a punch, or a hammer and thick nail. If using a hammer and nail, it's best to put a dowel (or tree branch) inside the can to prevent it from bending out of shape. Select a thickness that almost completely fills the can.
  3. Center a wick into the bottom of the can.
  4. Fill 2/3 full with paraffin or beeswax.
    (Or, you could use tealights.)
  5. Add twisted wire for a handle and hang in the garden, along the fence, or on a patio.
