Make A Caterpillar!
This Make A Caterpillar Lantern Pack is perfect for decorating children's parties, bedrooms, nurseries, and classrooms.
Each pack includes 3 teal green, 3 lime, and 1 red paper lantern, plus 1 pack of clear hanging line (100m).
Choose from 8" (20cm), 12" (30cm) or 16" (40cm) lanterns, depending on your space.
Your finished caterpillar will be around 4.7 feet (1.5M) long with 8" lanterns; 7 feet (2.1m) long with 12" lanterns, or 9.4 feet (2.8m) long with 16" lanterns.
Putting Together Your Caterpillar Is A Breeze!
Gently stick some pieces of coloured paper (not included) to the red lantern to give your caterpillar some eyes and a nose.
Add a pair of antenna (not included - we suggest pipe-cleaners, cable-ties, or pieces of stiff fabric or paper).
Add any other decoration that you like!
Then hang the 7 lanterns from the ceiling in a row (using the clear hanging line that we'll have included in the pack).

Hanging
Lanterns will arrive flat packed with metal expanders. Putting them up is very simple - just insert the expander and the lantern is ready to hang (we'll pop a leaflet in with the order showing what to do!).

Care
Paper lanterns are delicate, so take care when putting them up to avoid tearing the paper.
Never use tealights, candles or naked flames with nylon lanterns.
Safety tested to comply with BS EN 60598.
