How to make red envelope lanterns:
Material preparation: 12 red envelopes, 1 stapler, 1 pair of scissors, 1 double-sided tape, 1 nylon rope (can be taken from Handbag)
1. Prepare 12 red envelopes.
2. Fold the red envelope in half, then fold the four corners of the red envelope toward the same side of the red envelope, aligning with the crease in the center, ensuring that the four folded corners are the same size. 12 red envelopes need to be processed in the same way.
3. Arrange 4 of the red envelopes in a cross shape, nail the adjacent corners together in pairs to serve as the bottom of the lantern, and then use the same 4 red envelopes as the top of the lantern.
4. Place the other 4 red envelopes horizontally, and nail the top 2 corners and the top 2 corners.
5. Nail the four red envelopes in the same way, and then assemble the bottom, that is, nail the lower corners.
6. Curl the red envelope into a ball shape and the prototype is completed.
7. Use scissors to punch holes in the center of the four sides of the top, and then pass the nylon rope through the holes to fix it. The red envelope lantern is completed.
8. Finally, pass a rope through the top and bottom of the lantern, then decorate it, and it is ready.
