This week the kids and I made these cool papier mache lanterns.
I saw some similar lanterns on a blog I read awhile ago, but can't for the life of mw remember which blog and after trawling through heaps looking for the post to link to still couldn't find it.
They are made using tissue paper.
and flour and water glue
when they are dry we punched two holes in opposite sides and tied some string on to hang the lanterns from.
It's hard to see from the photo but in the dark the little tea light candels we put in the lantern glowed beautifully through the coloured tissue paper.
And just because I love it a pic of me in my new sunflower frock.

Wonederful read. I find it hard to imagine your sun and warm weather though, right now. We have about 12cm of snow outside our back door. And, its freezing?
