These lanterns have been hanging in my kitchen window since I photographed them for this DIY and I have to say, they bring me so much joy...You have no idea. When I get up late at night for a glass of water, they give off the perfect peaceful glow. The beads catch the light in the sweetest way both during the day and at night, too. I know that some of my projects are a bit more involved than most DIYs that you find out there, but there are often ways to improvise if you don't have everything…
