I want to make a really big one over the summer. For now this is my final version. If you watch the whole video you can see how it will change both quickly as well as slowly.
Lantern Project: Jada’s Spring Collection
My lantern will also double as a purse. I hot glued wood in the middle to hide the light bulb. I’m going to make a handle and glue fake flowers and vines to the outside
Lantern Progress- now finished
I was able to make some test cuts with the wood to make sure my file measurements were all going to work. I also was able to make a mini version of my lantern out of paper to get a feel for how the design would look and I’m not sure I love it. I…
Lantern Project- In Progress
I haven’t gotten the chance to actually get into the lab and cut my pieces yet but as an update here are my SVG files. There are a few things I am still working out but for the most part I’m really liking how its coming out. I decided to cut out the vines and…
Iris: Lantern Project
5/1 Newest Update! Alright folks, I finally finished my lantern project! Took a while for the LED lights to come in the mail, but once they did I was all ready with my three acrylic layers and the display box. Here is the current status of my project! Here are some progress pictures of the…
sameer: final lantern project
I used the rounded box design from Boxes.py: https://www.festi.info/boxes.py/RoundedBox?language=en. Then I cut out my robot design on the front face which is frosted acrylic. I colored the small cut out pieces black with sharpie and used a piece of clear tape to secure them in place. Then I placed RGB fairy lights on the inside…
Lantern Project – Emily
With the updated design I made cuts for the project. I had to do some of the pieces a couple times because pieces got stuck and I had moved the wood too much for it to be recut. I think I might try to incorporate the cut out pieces of Donna and the Dynamos into…
Chris’s Lantern prototype
so far iv made three attempts to cut out the prototype and it took really long to find a happy medium. I will say that doing test is really helpful and informative. However, the kurf bends on my lantern don’t bend really well. this could be due to how thick the wood is or that…
Lantern Into the woods
Holla it’s Leona. I’m sorry if my Lantern design was uploaded a little late, I have been spending time on my SVG files and looking for the proper “box design”. Since there was no simple box design on MakerCase that I thought would be nice for the project, I was thinking of a lantern whose…
Michelle’s Lantern Design
I have a friend from Bangladesh that was telling me about how homesick she was feeling, so I wanted to create a light-box with traditional Bengali designs that would help her feel more at home. Artists Question: I’m planning on using wood for this piece, but I don’t know if i should cut out the…
Lantern Design – Amanda Smith
I liked the rectangular box with the base that you could see poking out from the sides. I decided to use the design from boxes.py but have it taller to use as a nightstand light. I wanted to put flowers in the design from the movie Tangled, because this lantern project would work great with…
Lantern Design – Erica
For my Lantern I’m basing it off of the 3 PC’s and 1 main NPC from my current DND campaign (we’re playing Curse of Strahd). In Barovia the fortune tellers use Tarokka cards, similar to our Tarot cards, so I chose cards that seemed to best fit each character. I’m working to modify the actual…

For my lantern design I am planning on creating a candle holder. The candle holder will have 5 sides and will hopefully have the illusion that vines are wrapped around it. I plan of cutting out the vines then raster engraving the leaves. My question for you all is should I raster engrave the flowers…
Lantern Project: Tia Mehta
For my lantern design, I’m taking inspiration from the tesseract from the Marvel movies. The lantern will be a cube, with a tinier cube inside that has a blue light. I’m not sure how this will work yet, but hopefully I’ll figure it out. I want to make it the size of the tesseract from…

For my Lantern design, I’ve decided to create a shadowbox with cardstock paper. I chose to do more of a floral scene mixed with a partially mechanical and robotic look to it. I want the colors and shapes represent a balance between art and technology. I plan to make this a wall piece that’s about…
Alexander Breiling Preliminary Lantern Design
For my Lantern design I decided to try and see if I could do something interesting with the shape of the box so I looked up some kerf patterns to bend the wood that I’m going to be using for the roof. The rest will be cut out in a mostly box-like shape with an…
Sydney – Lantern Design
For my lantern design, I got inspired by brainstorming with Mandy. My design is a dissolving honeycomb pattern and I added 2 bees that are supposed to be on opposite sides (I need to fix it), and one bee on top! I intend to stain the wood a dark brown or black color, and then…
Lantern Design
Here is what I’m thinking of for my lantern! I took a lot of inspiration from the movie Spirited Away and wanted to test the limits of what could be considered a lantern. The idea originally came when I realized I could make an eight sided box and thought of the rectangular bath tokens from…
Lantern Design – Vanshika
I had a new idea because I really wanted to experiment with the shadow box. Since I used acrylic for the last project, I want to try using cardstock. I will be making a shadow box for Dr. Strange Once I do test cuts, I will experiment with vector engraves on the cardstock because I…
Lantern Design: Shane
This lantern gave me more trouble than I thought it would. I used thin cardboard I had lying around. I was still unsure how the duplicated LEDs would affect the projection so I decided to punch the holes one by one and see how it developed. I tried to super glue the cardboard shut, but…
Lantern Design – Imogen Barnes
For my lantern design I am creating a layered landscape of Atlantis, with a large shadow of a squid looming in the background. Much of my inspiration came from Hari and Deepti’s work. A piece I drew a lot from was their Nautilus sea scene. I have created the three main layers of my piece,…
Lantern Design – Emily
For my lantern design, I decided to do a Mamma Mia lantern. I was able to test cut the design on cardstock and saw some places that could use adjustment location wise because it cuts the piece out or interferes with the edge. I’m thinking of potentially changing one side so that instead of being…
Michelle’s (very late) Layer’s Project + Progress
Hello world! I know this project is very late, but I’m glad it’s done now! I underestimated how small I made the proportions for this project, so the piece came out with so many details that i had to assemble most of it with tweezers. I also last minute chose not to add in a…
