Tape and staplers are what you need to make this lantern.
Some AngPow packets, preferred square size.
5 packets to make a flower, 12 flowers to make a lantern, therefore, you will need 60 red packets to make one lantern.
Fold the red packet in triangle shape and tape on one side to make a cone.
Joining the cones by stapling them together to make one flower.
Make 12 flowers. Stapling flowers together to make a ball shape.
Decorate it with your favourite accessories like flowers, pearls, ribbons to make it your own lantern.
