Materials

• 12x12 Metal Sheet
• Tin Snips
• Wire
• Mason Jar
• Raffia
• White Spray Paint

Directions

1. Bend the metal into a cylinder that will fit inside your mason jar. Mark where you will need to cut
the excess metal off, overlapping a bit to wire the cylinder together

 

2. Mark where the metal will reach just above the jar also. You will want to leave a small amount
showing above the top so you can easily pull the metal cylinder out if need be.

 

3. Use tin snips to cut the metal sheet.
 

4. Roll metal back into cylinder shape.
 

5. Wire the 2 ends of the sheet together to hold.
 

6. Spray paint the metal cylinder white.
 

7. Place cylinder into jar and add a candle or tea light. You can also use wire to add a handle to the
mason jar for a hanging lantern.

 

8. Tie raffia around the jar.
