Tutorial on making simple rabbit lights:
1, we need to find some thick iron wires, and the total length of the iron wires is about 6 meters. The thick iron wires can fix the main part of the rabbit lamp, which is still very good. The long enough iron wires can make a more refined and perfect rabbit model.
2. Tool list: vice or needle-nosed pliers, as well as some adhesive tape, glue, rice paper and red colored paper.
3. This rabbit lamp consists of five groups of iron rings, and the two iron rings in each group have the same shape and size; The iron ring is fixed with adhesive tape.
4. The two largest oval iron rings are fixed in a cross way to make the rabbit's body; Two circular iron rings vertically fix lanterns.
5. Take two other circular iron rings to make rabbit heads.
6. Install the rabbit's two iconic long ears.
7. Finally, make a short round tail of the rabbit lamp.
8. Remove the wheels of children's used toy cars, make a base for dragging rabbit lanterns, and install candles.
9. The next step is the most patient paper pasting step. Carefully cover the iron ring with rice paper and stick it around with glue. When pasting paper, pay attention to leave a gap for lighting candles.
10, cut out the rabbit's red eyes and ears with red colored paper and stick them with glue.
