A little hike through the ferns
And a flameless tea light flickered to life a fanged spider
A starry sky
A cruise ship on the high seas
And added a bit of mystery to a leaf covered field.
If you want to make these little lanters you'll need:
an empty baby food jar
colorful paper
an exact o knife
a vivid imagination
some jewelry wire
mixture of beads
glue
flame-less tea lights
I sized up the paper to the jar and cut out a strip long enough to cover the baby food jar. Then used the exact-o knife to cut out whatever the boys wanted. Ethan prefered a spider (with fangs), a cruise ship, and a camp fire with marshmallows and a bee (with stinger...see a trend here?) Jacob asked for a sky with wind and stars. Once I had those cut and used a bit of mod-podge glue I glued the paper to the jar . The I wrapped the jewelry write around the neck of the baby food jar a few times for good measure and created a handle. I let the boys string their own beads and once they were done I secured it to the neck of the jar. Popped in a flame-less tea light and set forth for enchantment!
