Add some mystic appearance and that magic vibe to your every day life! You can make a magic lantern by yourself. It is quick, cheap and easy. And you probably already have all the items that you need.
You will need:
- A mason jar
- Spray paint
- Fairy Silhouette
- black paper
- light ( battery operated tea light or a candle, it’s up to you)
Start with the mason jar. Make sure it is clean and dry before you start with your work. Use spray paint to color the jar. You can use one or multiple colors to achieve the ombre look. Give it a light coat of color. The outside color is rather optional, it will make your lantern look nice through the day too.
Cut out a shape of fairy on a dark paper. You can use adhesive paper. Just make sure you choose the right shape so you can work with it easily. Stick the fairy shape to the wall of the jar. Make sure you find the proper position.
And at last, add some light. You can use a battery operated tea light or a candle. When you light it, the beautiful fairy silhouette will become visible. And your decoration is done! It will bring that enchanting light into your house. And this is a great idea for a gift too!
