And that's how easy it is:

1. Cut off pieces of equal length from the roll of tape 8, each thread must be three times longer than the lantern.

2. Wind a thread around the neck of the lantern and knot it. At this thread the 8 long pieces evenly distributed all around.

3. Loosely connect two adjacent threads with a double knot. Make sure that large stitches are formed. Pick up the next two threads and repeat the process. The knots should all lie horizontally at the same height.

4. Once all the threads are knotted, the second row follows. To do this, take a thread from the first knot and a thread from the following knot and join them with a double knot, creating a new stitch in the middle of the top two stitches. Repeat this process until the second course is finished knotted.

5. Same procedure for the third row. Repeat the process until you arrive at the edge of the lantern.

6. Turn over the lantern and fix the threads on the bottom of the vase with hot glue.

7. Fill the lantern with sand, shells and candle.
