The decoupage technique can be used to create highly decorative light objects from simple lanterns.
Find out here how you can decorate bottle-shaped lanterns with decorative decoupage paper.

Design a lantern bottle with decoupage

Decoupage is the technique of decoratively sticking high-quality motif straw floss, specially developed for this hobby, onto objects:

Take the decoupage straw silk, choose your favourite motifs and carefully cut them out.
Coat the lantern bottle evenly with Paperpatch glue (decoupage glue) and then apply the straw floss as smoothly as possible.
This works best if you use a soft brush to smooth it out.

Then seal the paper with another layer of glue, as this is transparent and acts as a protective varnish.
Decorate a second lantern bottle in the same way.


To create the perfect look, stick a decorative ribbon around the bottle on the edge of your glued-on straw floss using double-sided adhesive tape.
Finally, tie a pretty bow.


If you now place an LED tea light in each bottle, your bottle lanterns are ready to hang.
