How to Make a Gypsy Lantern

By DIY Maven

Mia’s gypsy lanterns are so sweet and romantic, they’d be perfect decorations for an indoor or outdoor party. (Can’t you just imagine them decorating a yard for a twilight wedding? Lovely!) They’re also a great recycling project too. Stuff you’ll need to make them include:

light weight cotton fabric (time to use up those scraps)
tissue paper
clean, empty glass jars of the smallish variety
18-gauge wire
sewing machine, or you could sew by hand too
cotton thread
scissors
hot glue gun
wire cutters
pliers

For the complete tutorial, head on over to One Hour Crafts.
