'Tangled' Lantern Tutorialby ~Hecatia10

Resources & Stock Images / Tutorials / Artisan Crafts

Inspired by the amazing-ness of the new Disney movie 'Tangled' - which was even more fantastic than I thought it would be

- I made some lanterns over my christmas holidays. The fake candles I have flicker like real candles and everything!

Then, because of the intrest from all you lovely dA people I re-made the tutorial that my computer had deleted.
I've had it ready for about 3 weeks but I got the jitters wondering if was too wordy, or not detailed enough or whatever.... but schools started, so its now or never! ^_^

EDIT 1:

Wow, didn't expect the response to this.... I love you all

EDIT 2: So excited, its taken me two months but I'm finally up to date with replying to comments, favs etc. !!

EDIT 3: Fixed up this description and added a few more facts/ frequently asked questions.

~FAQ~

1. If you make some and put them on dA I'd love to see them so send me a link!! And please link back to me!

2. I will add in what type of wire it is when I find out!

3. Sun Template: [link] (By yurihappiny: [link])

4. Full template: If you would like a full template with a less simple, closer to the film border, one has been made by kapuschati: [link]

5. The candles: I found a christmas carols thing and went there to buy my candles, so I can't be much help if you're looking to find some (apart from suggesting that you wait untill christmas and gatecrash some carols nights).
However if you go to a two dollar shop you might be able to find something similar. Good luck!

6. The lanterns don't actually float of corse, but I have them hanging from my bedroom celing at the moment so they kinda do....

7. VIP!! If you want to use real candles be my guest - just make sure you spray the paper with fire retardent first! O.o
The paper + wire may just be a little too heavy for these to float, and you would need much more heat ...
However the basic idea is simple, cover the top and put a real candle inside.
