Ice-cream sticks + rubber bands dinosaur lantern
Spent a few nights to get this dinosaur lattern done for my daughter.
The materials used are mainly coloured ice-cream sticks, and tied together with rubber bands.
It was based on 3-point supports and 3D struts support which I did in one of my architectural projects in University. Quite fun, in a way. I thought I need to use UHU glue to do it initially.
The different coloured ice-cream sticks brighten the structure, which was quite a surprise.
The candle will be place at the stomach area, instead of the mouth area, due to its weight.
Wrapped in cellophane film, as my wife said it needs to look more like a lattern.....
Added in the eyes to make it come to life.
Looks more like a chicken to me now...lol!!!
I prefer to see the structure alone....
...when lighted up.
