Steps to create Ganesha Lantern
Draw the design which you like in the thick card stock. I have drawn a Ganesha, the God of good luck. If you can’t draw, please download the template given belowĀ and print it.
Click on TemplateĀ and download the file. Print it and trace the image on a thick card stock.
Use a craft knife to cut the white area, don’t cut the shaded region. I love the Bianyo knife, they have extra knives which you can change once it has gone bad.

After you cut the white area, paint with gold paint. I used gold powder and medium to paint the Ganesha.
Fold the base after the paint is dried. Now, your Ganesha is ready. Light up a candle before the lantern and watch the beautiful shadow. Let this Diwali bring happiness and luck to your home.Happy Diwali
