Origami Lanterns

2010-01-20-lantern.JPG

Each holiday season, we're always sad to put away the decorations, especially our strands of light. Then we found this great idea to turn Christmas lights into a string of origami lanterns.

 
 

Just follow the instructions to fold these lanterns from origami paper, then slip over light bulbs. They make any room look more festive.

If you have trouble following the video in the link, this video also has the same instructions. I found them easier to follow because the woman in this video uses colored paper:

These are beautiful - I may just drag those pretty lights right back out of the closet.
