Check out this step-by-step tutorial on how to create this DIY Hanging Jellyfish Lantern party decor as seen in my latest Finding Dory Inspired Party. This tutorial doesn’t disappoint ! These would also be perfect for an Under The Sea or Mermaid party.
Fully extend the Pink Paper Lantern by placing and securing the metal frame inside.
Cut 6 pieces of the Pink Curling Ribbon to 18″ each. Place a Mini Glue Dot® on the end of one of the ribbons and press it to the inside bottom rim of the paper lantern (as shown). Repeat this for all 6 ribbons equally spacing them around the bottom of the lantern. Once they are secure use scissors to curl each ribbon.
Stick the blue 1/2″ Glitter Adhesive Jewels to the bottom of the lantern spacing them out equally (as shown)
Tie one end of Clear Stretchy Cording to the top metal rod of the paper lantern and hold the other end up to your ceiling until you have it hanging down to the length that you want. For this look, hand the middle one higher than the other two. Cut the clear cording. To secure it to the ceiling, use a plastic 3M Command hook (according to the package instruction) and tie the other end of the cording to the hook.
Repeat step 1-4 for all 3 paper lanterns. That’s it! What a fabulous look to my Finding Dory Inspired Party dessert table! You could make more than 3 of these paper lantern jellyfish and hang them all over the ceiling for a cool look too.
