DIY DOLLAR STORE RUSTIC FALL LANTERN


DIY DOLLAR STORE RUSTIC FALL LANTERN




Supplies for Rustic Fall Lantern:


DIY Dollar Store Rustic Fall Lantern

Instructions for Rustic Fall Lantern:

  1. Remove the plastic, frame back and picture inserts from the picture frames.
  2. Put the tabs back down to hold the glass in place.
  3. Glue the corners of the picture frames together. Be sure to align it evenly. Hold together firmly until each frame dries (about a minute). Be generous with the glue because you want it to hold up well. Also, I glue the inside of the corners to make sure it holds.
  4. Using a pencil, trace the outline of the lantern onto the foam board.
  5. Cut out the outlined section of the foam board
  6. Trace the outline of the foam board onto the back of the contact paper with the pencil. Add an extra 1/2 inch to the top and side to cover the sides of the foam board.
  7. Make two cut outs of the contact paper using the first one as a guide for the second one.
  8. Cover the front and back of the foam board with the contact paper. Be sure to cover the sides as well.
  9. Glue the foam board base to the bottom of the lantern.

Now you are ready to decorate the inside of your rustic fall lantern. This is the fun part where you can get creative with it.  I decorated the inside of the lantern a few different ways to give you some inspiration.

DIY BEGINNER MACRAME GARLAND

DIY BEGINNER MACRAME GARLAND MATERIALS NEEDED: macrame yarn (I use this one  HERE  and  HERE ) sharp scissors (I like using haircutting scissors) wood beads (I used these  HERE  and some slightly larger ones I had, I lied alternating slightly different sizes) hair comb (if you want to brush out the edges again) INSTRUCTIONS: I made another video which you can see below and you can also follow my step-by-step instructions as described with the photos:   For my garland, I used 23 wooden beads threaded on a 10-foot piece of macrame cord. I wanted it to belong so I could possibly use it on a Christmas tree shortly. For my length of garland, you need to knot 22 small pieces of macrame altogether. And when you make one piece of macrame in-between the above wood beads you need to cut 6 pieces of 40-inch macrame yarn which you then have to repeat 22 times or however long you want your garland. I had to cut 132 pieces of 40-inch macrame yarn strings. Does that make ...
