Crocheted Hanging Globe Candle Lantern

by

Jenn recently put this hanging crocheted tea light lantern up for sale in her shop Poor Little Lamb, and I had to share it. She finds the globes in thrift stores and then crochets the holders to fit them.

It’s a unique way to decorate with candles and would be perfect for the cottage or beach! I can picture several of these lanterns in different colors hanging near the lake, lighting the path for party guests.

If you crochet, I imagine you could create one of these hanging lanterns with a pattern similar to those mesh reusable shopping bags.  Of course you could also check out Poor Little Lamb for more info on Jenn’s adorable crocheted lantern creation.
