This is to all creative artistic people out there who may be interested in getting involved in the Lantern Carnival sheduled for the 1st April. We are making 3D lanterns out of Willow and covered with Tissue paper and will be lit with candles and LED’s. The theme of the carnival is Enchanted Garden so people have been making toadstools and various insects and even a huge Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland. The workshops are volunteer led in Sheffield every saturday. Please check out the website for further info and contact details.

We would welcome more people to get involved in this.

where can you get the LED modules? Seems like a brilliant (excuse the pun) way to make traditional Chinese lanterns without the risk of setting fires due to candles…

Got LED’s from Maplin, cost 17p each. Bargain. Av wired 20 in a circuit to cover the butterfly lantern. :bounce_fl:bounce_fl
