Romantic Lights

They provide for a magical atmosphere during the long winter evenings and are completed in just a few moments.

Lantern:
Print a parchment bag (bread bags, household goods) with potato print or something similar. Turn the edge of the bag inside out. Place an empty jelly jar inside the bag and put a tea light into the jar.

Preserving jars:
Ikea glasses are also excellent for this, especially as one generally has too many of them anyway
Collect fall leaves, letting them dry. Tie them around the glasses with colorful ribbons and place a candle inside the glass.

Oriental magic:
Glue four picture frames together along their borders, forming a square.
Glue tissue paper on the glass parts and place a little candle or a tea light inside. Depending on the color of the tissue paper, a beautiful light is created.


Tea light lanterns

Materials:
Two-colored handicraft foil

This is how it is done:
Cut a 21 x 14 cm rectangle out of the two-colored handicraft foil. Now fold the rectangle over its long side (A).
Cut even strips from the folded side, leaving about a 2 cm border on the upper edge. (B).
Now open the handicraft foil, gluing the two outer edges above each other.
Position the tea light lantern, pressing it lightly from above so that the strips are bent outwards.
Place the tea light into the middle. The tea light lantern is complete!
