Willow lantern workshop kit

Description

I love making lanterns and I often run lantern-making workshops for lots of different organisations so I thought that it might be nice to offer this as a fun activity to do at home its such a great activity to do especially in the autumn and winter months where you can then go outside and enjoy your new creationI

You will have the choice to make a variety of lantern from the traditional; pyramid, ball, or box and stars all the way through to a ginger bread house or snowman , the shapes can easily be decorated and adapted in so many different ways to suit a variety of themes and purposes

You will need to have reasonable hand dexterity or an assistant to help with the tricky bits.
