KEY TOP TIPS:
- To help space out your design elements, you may wish to plan the layout of your lantern before you begin..
- Your stitching may be visible through the lantern in places, so avoid carrying the thread across the back of the fabric. Instead, fasten off once a section is complete, then start again in a new area.
- The voile fabric is prone to fraying, so avoid stitching too close to the edges of your voile pieces.
- This craft kit is not a toy and not designed for use by children.
HOW LONG DOES THIS TUTORIAL TAKE?
The hands-on time for this kit is around 3-4 hours to stitch the design, depending on how many design elements you use on your lantern. You can create this over multiple crafting sessions.
Our key tips to experimenting with the Embroidered Celestial Lantern:
- Layer voile pieces in different ways to create depth and texture.
- Mix and match thread colours to create your own celestial palette. p;
- Add extra stars, moons, or constellations beyond the templates for a personal touch.
- Try varying stitch lengths or styles to give each element a unique character.
- Play with placement—move designs around before stitching to see what feels right.
- Keep your lantern symmetrical or go freestyle for a more whimsical look.
- Personalise it with initials, dates, or small symbols for a meaningful gift.
