Dawn Bibby/Craft Buddy Lantern Tutorial

The finished project
Hello everyone,

Hope you are all well and enjoying the sunshine.  Sitting here writing this, I should really be working, but will catch up shortly.  Price Drop curently on with Charlie on Hochanda.  Always a bargain to be had here.  Its been a busy time here. Friday I was at the Excel Centre with Crystal Art helping Gary with the make and takes.  Was lovely to meet lots of people.  Had a lovely day.  Next Saturday I'm off on a distress ink course at That's Crafty.  Looking forward to that.  Its been a while since I blogged and thought I'd best start posting tutorials like I do on my Hochanda Blog Ambassador Slot.  This time its for a lantern made out of MDF, brilliant these are as with it now the time of the year to sit out in the garden, you can put battery operated fairy lights in them or LED candles.  If you leave them outside overnight you will need to pain them first with a suitable sealant.

Hope you like this.  For this project you will need:
MDF lantern.
Dawn Bibby's pink poppy box.
Hot glue or silicone glue.
Resin flowers.

Stage 1: Build your lantern using the instructions provided in the box.
Stage 2: Decide if you would like to seal the lantern or have it open like this so you can take things in and out.
Stage 3: Add your flowers and embellishments
Hope you enjoyed this quick and easy project.  Here are the links for the products used:

See you next time xx
