Here’s the first one, in conjunction with Erewash Borough Council,  a little seasonal lantern making.

You will need a cleaned jar, a 30cm cable tie, 40cm garden/twist tie, peel off stickers, permanent marker pens.

Steps:

1. 1. The twist tie handle – fold each end under cable tie, and wrap ends around the twist tie
   2. Attach cable tie to neck of jar, pull it tight – tug hard on handle before cutting spare cable tie off
   3. Use peel off stickers to decorate jar
   4. Colour jar brightly with marker pens
   5. Pop a battery tea-light or fairy lights inside to make your lantern shine bright!
