Lantern 2
Hello to you. I'd like to share my latest lantern. It was made by layering pieces of tissue paper onto muslin with a diluted glue mixture. This is the same technique I used to make a photo album cover in an earlier post. After the piece dried, I cut it into four pieces then sewed them together. I added some squiggly black stitches around some of the shapes. I trimmed the edges in faux leopard leather then added some bead trim for a little sparkle. The circular shape is maintained by a wire circle I made with 18 gauge wire covered in white floral tape.
