Mine has worked perfectly, although the joining of the two modules was very tricky, I ended up using a large mixing bowl to hold it in shape while I stuck the pieces together. I busted my first by trying to use thread to gather the ends, even though I used 210gsm card, it just ripped out. For the second attempt I just stuck the little triangles together with tape and that worked fine as it is hidden on the inside so I looks fine. I also cut a circle of plastic and threaded that onto the lights cord, so that the shade is supported from the inside. It looks so beautiful.

Some also use a very thin pvc/mylar sheet, I think. Try on a small piece so you can get the effect you want!<br /><br />Thanks so much, Martin! I appreciate it.

Did you mean, joining two papers to make it long? or two lanterns joined from top and bottom? <br /><br />Either way, to join two papers-take a narrow strip of paper and glue to the middle of adjoining papers on the reverse side. This joining strip makes the papers flat and seam unnoticeable.<br /><br />To join two lanterns with one on top and bottom, you can join them with strings. :-)<br /><br />Good luck!Sergiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04442632765052914741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4950517333940072860.post-42418623662560462822013-03-17T04:06:22.568-07:002013-03-17T04:06:22.568-07:00Thanks for the tutorial!

If you need to work on a smaller...Hello, thank you!<br />If you need to work on a smaller paper, just follow the folding steps and pattern then apply it to your paper of whatever size. Make sure the paper is a rectangle. Folding should be easy: fold it in half lengthwise (if you want to be accurate then measure the paper and divide into 2 to get the middle), fold again each part into 6 to have 12 parts. For the rest, follow the folding steps above. <br />Hope that helps, good luck!Sergiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04442632765052914741noreply@blogger.com
