  • Solid lines to cut, dashed lines to fold, shaded tabs to glue
How to use it

For grown-ups

  • Print on card (160–200 gsm) if you can — the lantern stands up better.
  • Grown-ups: cut the roof circle; children can cut the long straight edges.
  • Pop a battery tea-light inside for a glowing lantern — never a real flame.
  • Make several and hang them on a string for the last ten nights.
  • Print at 100% ("actual size"). Ink-saver line art is the default, so colouring in is part of the fun.
