DIY lantern/night light made from paper plates
Here is probably my last lantern motif before St. Martin: a fox lantern, more precisely a mother fox with a cute fox baby that you can even remove đŸ˜‰ I had already made Papa Fox last year, but without a print template. I have now done this and the entire family is now in the print template. Instead of a lantern stick, I once again used a simple branch, which fits perfectly with the forest animal theme and looks beautifully natural. There is another ready-made print template for you in two different plate sizes, which you can find in the material list.
Material list:
- Fox lantern print file (for 23 and 19 cm size): CLICK
- Kraft paper: CLICK
- Natural cardboard soup plate 19-20 cm: CLICK
