Details to be paid attention to when making lanterns
First, material selection.
Choosing the right materials is the key to making lanterns. Commonly used materials are paper, bamboo, satin, LED lights and so on. Different materials have different characteristics and need to be selected according to the design and use requirements of lanterns.
Second, the structural design
The structural design of lanterns should be reasonable and stable, which can support and fix the shape and weight of lanterns. In structural design, the size, shape and weight of lanterns need to be considered to ensure that lanterns can be hung safely and stably.
Third, the production process
Making lanterns requires certain technical skills. If it is made of paper, you need to master the skills of cutting, folding and pasting. If it is made of bamboo or wood, you need to master the skills of cutting, grinding and weaving. In the production process, attention should be paid to details, such as smooth edges and avoiding burrs.
Fourth, decoration and design.
The decorative design of lanterns should be coordinated with the overall style. Different colors, patterns and materials can be used to decorate lanterns to increase their aesthetic feeling and attraction. In the decoration design, we need to consider the theme and style of lanterns to ensure that the decoration matches the overall style.
Verb (short for verb) is safe.
Pay attention to safety when making lanterns. Safe tools and materials should be used. For example, low-voltage LED lights should be used to avoid flammable materials. After the production is completed, safety inspection should be carried out, such as checking whether the wires are damaged and whether the lanterns are stable.
Sixth, the storage method
The prepared lanterns need to be stored properly to avoid damage or pollution. You can hang lanterns or display them on the table, while keeping them dry and clean.
