So let’s make it glow with these gorgeous botanical lanterns, so easy to make – and if you haven’t got room enough for a 10 foot Christmas tree, there’s still a way to incorporate that warm and inviting holiday glow into your Christmas decor.

The clock is ticking so let’s get started.

DIY Botanical Lanterns Tutorial

Supplies:

LED string lights

Vlieseline

Iron

FISKARS Precision Scissors

Dried plants, flowers etc.

Step 1

Trim and cut the leaves into smaller pieces

Step 2

Cut a piece of vlieseline approx. 40 centimetres.

Step 3

On one side of the vlieseline, arrange the leaves on the backside (the rough side with adhesive).

Step 4

Fold the vlieseline in the middle, so that the backsides are facing each other.

Step 5

Set the iron on low heat and fix the leaves between the two layers. Leave a centimetre or two to fix the ends.

Step 6

Make an overlap at the ends, iron and fix the ends in between the two layers. Alternative use fabric glue to fix adhere the ends.

Get ready with your string lights and you’re set to enjoy a quiet moment filled with a magical and starry light.

This is such a great way to make the best use of your LED string lights and candles this year for a cosy winter wonderland.

If you’ve got a non-functioning fireplace, replace the logs with a cluster of these enchanting darlings which are BIG on holiday spirit if using fir branches or Poinsettia.

No worries if there’s not any more room for Christmas projects on your list? Just pin the DIY Botanical Lanterns and save it for later use.

These will still make a big impact on a dark night in February or secure them with wire on a tree in your garden or on a balcony for a cosy and hyggelig summer soiree.
