Hey folks, I'm super interested in the art of lantern-making! I've always admired those beautifully crafted lanterns that we see during festivals. I'm wondering if anyone out there knows about any traditional lantern-making techniques that are still in use today? I'd love to hear about the methods and materials that lantern artisans use. Any insights or experiences to share? 😊🔆💡 #Crafts #TraditionalArt #Lanterns #QuoraCommunity
