Day Four of the Happy.

[agoodwinsmith]

We went out in the chilly crunchy world, had breakfast with our friend Catherine at the Cafe du Soleil, and finished our Solstice Lanterns.
  

First SOGP's lantern:



And then my lantern:



And then assorted guts so you can see how it was done:

 

We used split bamboo from bamboo blinds, and hot glue (amazing stuff) and tissue paper and diluted white glue.  Neato.  I love doing stuff like this because I don't get the chance very often.  Ta da.

Doing those made me happy.  Having them finished makes me happy.  Looking forward to using them next Sunday makes me happy.

Edit - I do not know why it is showing two lj cuts - I have only created one, and they both go to the same cut, although the top one takes you to the top of the cut, and the bottom one takes you to the bottom of the cut.  Weird.  Just weird.  But I'm so happy, I *sneer* in the face of lj weirdness.
