- Attach the Translucent Sheets: Apply a small amount of craft glue to adhere the illustrated translucent panels to the inner face of each of the 3 frame boards. Ensure the colorful patterns face outward.
- Connect the Side Frames: Align the interlocking tabs along the side edges of the three frame boards and connect them one by one to form a triangular pyramid shell.
- Insert the Base Plate: Snap the bottom base plate into the lower rim slots to secure the lantern structure.
- Install the LED Fairy Lights: Feed the LED light string through the top opening into the center of the lantern. Gently arrange the wire so the glow illuminates all three panels evenly.
- Attach Pendants & Tassel: Tie the long silk tassel to the bottom loop of the base plate. Use a dab of glue to attach the decorative corner pendants or bells to the bottom tips of the frame edges.
- Add the Carrying Stick: Tie the red hanging thread from the wooden carrying stick to the top apex loop where the three frames meet. Switch on the LED and enjoy your glowing ancient-style triangle lantern!
