Tutorial: Lantern à la Lena Katrine

Hi sweeties!

I've seen quite a lot of different lanterns lately, but no one like the one
I've been making in my mind for a long while now :)
So, I thought it would be a perfect creation to make at one of my classes at Unik Hobby, and yesterday 14 exited women learned to make this.
My Lantern became a great success among the ladies in my class (tusen takk for en flott kveld damer!), so I thought I'd share it with you too :)
So here's a tutorial I've made for all of you - get ready for LOTS of pictures!!!
I hope you like it ;)

You can get the pictures bigger if you click on them!

That's a LOT of pictures, but I hope you enjoyed my Lantern Tutorial!

Have fun, take care and I wish you all a wonderful weekend!
Hugs, Lena Katrine
