What you'll need

  • A4 sheet
  • Scissors
  • Stapler
  • Glow stick
  • Pipe cleaners

How it works

  1. Take an A4 sheet. Place the sheet in front of you and fold it lengthwise in the middle.

  2. On the folded side, make several cuts with scissors. But don't cut all the way to the edge!

  3. Now unfold the sheet. Roll the sheet so that the ends overlap. Use a stapler to secure the overlapping ends.

  4. Take one or more pipe cleaners and shape a handle. Poke two holes in the lantern and attach the pipe cleaner to it. And just like that, you have your own lantern! Now just attach a glow stick and wander through the darkness! Have fun crafting and glowing!
