Small Man and I made a couple more lanterns yesterday…
Lots of fun, although I’ve nearly used up all my angpow wrappers!
Stunning! Wow! Super like!
Gorgeous! How festive your house must look.
I’m amazed at how many laterns can be created with just those wrappers! They’re beautiful!
I’m imagining all your fantastic lanterns all over the house Celia…, I love the one with tassels, impressive & ahemmm….., is there anything you can’t do?? No, no…., don’t answer that…, I’m already in awe, the truth may cause serious implications.
Awesome job my friend :)
So festive! I’m happy your son worked with you on the lanterns. I love it when my sons jump into a project with me!
Gorgeous lanterns, Celia! What fun you must’ve had making them. A Happy New Year to you and Pete! :)
They’re just exquisite Celia and extra special because you can attach to them time spent making them with your SM. Ten clever and happy fingers. Gong Xi Fa Cai

Thank you, lovely ladies! We had great fun making them! :)
Hi Celia,
Those lanterns look stunning. Very beautiful. Your house must look lovely.
Amazing!
I don’t know how you find time to do everything, Celia – these lanterns look wonderful. Happy New Year!
How very festive for the Chinese new year.
Happy Year of the Rabbit – peace to us all and loads of fun!
Very nice! (Whats an Angpow?)
Thank you all! Lee, and ang pow is a red package with money in it, given at Chinese New Year to children for good luck (lucky children, eh?). :) There a bit more info here:

Beautiful lanterns, you’re a woman of many talents. Happy Chinese New Year
Thanks Choc! Happy New Year to you too!
Ok, I think I know which ones you mean, but don’t think I can get them again. Did they have the name of any bank or company on them? I’ll find her some nice ones.
Whaaat? You made those? They’re brilliant! But of course right!
Thank you, ladies! :)
