Second, make the lamp body. Buy some white and red ordinary rice paper or golden rice paper in Four Treasures of the Study store, cut it into the length and width of the lantern skeleton, and you can design your own patterns. Calligraphy, painting and paper-cutting can all be displayed on small lanterns. After pasting, you can also use narrow strips of imitation silk paper to edge up and down, which looks more elegant, much like ancient palace lanterns. If you are not good at painting and calligraphy, there is a simple method for reference. Use a thin paper to trace the desired words on the copybook, then overlap this thin paper with crimson rice paper and dig out the words with a single-edged blade. Take off the tissue paper, and hollow handwriting will appear on the red rice paper. White rice paper is used as the lamp body, red rice paper is pasted in it, and candlelight or light is mapped out from the hollowed-out place, and the effect is quite beautiful.
Third, make a light source. If you put it indoors, you just need to light an ordinary candle in the lantern; If you want to carry it out, you'd better make a simple circuit with light bulbs and batteries.
2. Fuzhou lanterns-also known as umbrella lanterns
Guizhu: It is the most widely planted bamboo in Taiwan Province. Hard and elastic texture, suitable for fishing rods, brooms and other appliances.
Bamboo strips: the bamboo is split into bamboo strips, which is called "bamboo strips". Punch holes in the upper and lower ends of bamboo sticks and thread them with iron wires.
Bamboo head: grooves are carved on the bamboo joints of Guizhu and fixed with thick iron wires to form the head and bottom of bamboo lanterns.
Practice:
1. Install the bamboo strips with iron wires on the bamboo head pedestal.
2. A bamboo pole is installed on a groove, and finally the bamboo head is tied with iron wire to form a bamboo frame.
3. Stand against the ground, and slowly push the bamboo frame downward until it becomes tubular.
4. Fold bamboo sticks by hand, and adjust the shape, curvature and distance between bamboo sticks of lanterns.
5. Tie cotton thread on the top of the lantern to fix the bamboo sticks.
6. Spread white gauze on bamboo strips and fix them with paste.
7. Wait for the gauze to dry, and then apply the agar.
8. After drying in the shade, the cylindrical umbrella lamp is shaped.
9. Then paint and paint. Generally speaking, the characters are vermilion, and the pictures are auspicious paintings such as the Eight Immortals crossing the sea and Fu Lushou Samsung.
10. Finally, install the base on the bamboo head and decorate it, and it is finished. 1, cut off the head and tail of the plastic beverage bottle, and then draw a uniform strip on the middle part of the bottle body with a knife, and don't cut through the two ends. Do this well, press both ends to the middle, and you can see the prototype of the lantern. Then find two bottle caps that are similar to the bottle body, punch them in the middle, put them on both ends of the bottle body, thread them with thread or silk or iron wire, and tie them at both ends to make a lantern. If you want to beautify it, when you draw the bottle, you can carve what you like.
2. You can also find a cable with five or six iron wires in the middle, leave a few centimeters at both ends, remove all the skin in the middle, and then slowly pull the iron wires out and trim them into a lantern. Paste the painting paper that looks good to you, cover the two ends with bottle caps or other round things, and tie it up with a thread from the middle, and you can do it. /playlist/id/48 14373/
