This time we will make the lotus lanterns.

The lantern festival is a tradition for Buddha's birthday(April 8 in the lunar calendar) in Korea.

Buddha's birthday falls on May 21 this year.

That's why we make lanterns in May.

 

The lantern burns itself and gives light to the world meaning sacifice. 

Colorful and various lanterns are beautiful.

Come and enjoy making your own lanterns!
