marcuslovesonenote.wordpress Lantern DIY: Let there be light! | Splash of Something I joined a Pinterest a little more than a month ago and have been slowly falling in love with it ever since. Does anyone else use the site? Seriously, it’s crazy nifty and can easily fill hours and hours of your time with great ideas and tons o’ eye candy. At the same time I was embarking on my newfound love of Pinterest, I was also on the hunt for an outdoorsy DIY project to make for the June/July issue of Columbia Home. Blow up balloons to desired size. If you plan to place a lantern light in your finished lanterns, draw a circle on the top of each balloon large enough to accommodate the lighting fixture. Lay a plastic drop cloth over your work surface, and set up a place where balloons can be suspended from the air to dry. Mix glue, cornstarch and warm water in a large container until all lumps are gone, then cover each balloon in petroleum jelly (using rubber gloves for this cuts down on the mess). Wrap the ball vertically to a comfortable tightness, then horizontally. XO, Katrina
