Paper lantern make!

I like it when I suddenly find the motivation to make something. This wasn't planned so just made it up as I went along. I might develop this idea on to a lampshade for my house as I quite like it!

I used some lining paper that I had lying around and just my favourite black pens. I cut out some of the windows completely but also left some of them with little windows that can open and close. I think it add a little more detail to it! I then used a needle to make the stars.

It has a tea light in a glass ramekin to light it up. I would probably change this to a tall glass just to make it a little safer but I don't have any glasses as...well let's just say I feel better using plastic tumblers haha.
