D. ASSEMBLY

1. Expand the paper lantern gently as in the diagram.

2. Carefully insert the expander through the big hole with 2 eyelets.

3. Carefully insert the expander slots (convex points) in the eyelets. You may gently bend the

expander so that it can fit into the slot. This will fix the lantern in shape. Do this one by

one to avoid breaking the lantern's paper. Ask for an adult's assistance if needed.

E. PAINTING

Use a pencil to draft the design on the lantern surface before

applying the paint. Be reminded that the pencil tip may

break the lantern. Design using your own imagination or refer

to the illustration as shown on the package. You may also

use your own paint at home to create more colour designs.

Please also refer to the painting tips below.

Caution: When paint is applied on the lantern surface, the

water will soak through the lantern surface. The lantern

paper will break easily when it is still wet. Thus, it is

recommended that you do not dilute the paint with too much water and avoid applying too

much paint at one time when painting the lantern. Wait for the first layer to dry before

applying the second one. If the lantern is broken accidentally, you could use stationery

adhesive tape or tissue paper to repair it.

PAINTING TIPS

Follow the colour mixing guide below to produce more colours. Some of the following guides

may not apply to your kit if the required colours are not included.

Green = Yellow + Blue, Orange = Yellow + Red, Purple = Blue + Red, Pink = Red +

White,Lime Green = Yellow + a little Blue, Turquoise = Blue + White + a little Yellow, Brown

= Red + Yellow + a little Black, Sky Blue = Blue + White

Mix the colours with White and Black to make them look lighter or darker respectively. Do

not mix too many colours together as it will make the final colour look muddy. For best

results, apply more than one layer of paint but wait until the first layer is dry before applying

a second coat. It is always easier to paint a darker colour on a lighter colour background than

the reverse. Always wash your paint brush before mixing or applying a new colour. Prepare a

small cup of water for this purpose. It is also a good idea to use a mixing tray for mixing

paints. Close the pot lids tightly to prevent the paint from drying up. If the paint becomes

dry, dilute it with a few drops of water. You may also add a small drop of dishwashing

detergent to the paint and mix it. This will help the paint adhere to the surface better.
