Making a Chinese Lantern pt1 (Fabric, wire and glue)

This video is part 1 of 3. It takes the audience through a project of making a Chinese Lantern out of fabric, wire and glue. Chinese lanterns have a history dating back generations, this project is our modern take on starting with an idea and progressing it through to the point of being on display -- just in time for Chinese Lantern Festival (Moon Cakes!). The approach has been to have fun more than make a serious documentary. This is what works for us and may work for you. Specifics: Cost: $120 (max) Time: 14-16 man hours Potential issues: What do you do with a fish a meter and a half in length at the end of the festival? Remember: Work safely Cheers P
