Pirate Base Lantern

A 3D base lantern with a pirate ship theme. The lantern goes together using a clever slot-together technique which means that the “lantern structure” part doesn’t require any glue. This means that it can easily be taken apart so that it can be stored flat. Add battery-powered fairy lights, battery candles or submersible LED lights inside the lantern to create a beautiful glow. Use vellum, tracing paper or other transclucent materials to cut the windows to go inside the window panels. This helps to diffuse the light for a more even glow and helps to hide the lighting mechanisms. An assembly guide PDF document is included to show how to put the layers together for the main lantern image, plus how to add the structural pieces inside. Links to written and video tutorials for similar lanterns are included too.
