Directions:

  • First print out the FREE camping lantern template above. You will want one printable, per camping light craft.

  • When done coloring, go ahead and grab your scissors & the decorated lantern printable.
  • Trim out the design, as well as the inside portion of the lantern.
  • Discard excess paper.
  • Now grab your clear contact paper.
  • Cut out TWO pieces that are bigger than the lantern cutout.
  • Remove the backing from one piece of contact paper.
  • Lay it on a flat surface.
  • Place the lantern cutout, face down, on the contact paper.
  • Next decorate the inside of their camping light however you like {I did various shades of orange, red and yellow in mine, as well as loose star shaped craft glitter.}
  • Once you are done creating the contents, grab the second piece of contact paper.
  • Peel off the backing and place it on top of the other piece of contact paper, moving your hand around to “squish” everything together.
  • To finish off the Stained Glass Lantern Cup craft, use your scissors to trim out the cup/remove the excess contact paper.
  • Then display proudly on a window with a little bit of clear tape!!!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
