We start by marking a 12x8 cm oval shape on the red cardboard and cut it out. Glue the wider ends until you get the shape you see in the image.
Iniciamos marcando en la cartulina roja una forma de ovalo de 12x8 cm y recortamos. Pegamos los extremos más anchos hasta lograr la forma que vemos en la imagen.

We are going to mark and cut out some cayenne flowers from yellow cardboard and a red cardboard center. Glue the red shape on top of the yellow one and you will get some little flowers.
Vamos a marcar y recortar unas flores de cayena de cartulina amarilla y centro de cartulina roja. Pegamos la forma roja sobre la amarilla y lograremos unas florecitas.

Glue the flowers to the center of the piece we had previously made. We will need 8 of these pieces.

We take a rectangular piece of red cardboard measuring 11x28 cm and glue the 8 pieces on it in a centered position.

We are going to cut the plastic bottle to about 11 cm from the base.

Then we glue the previously made piece with the help of liquid or stick silicone.

We are going to decorate with yellow stripes on the upper and lower part of the piece.

In the same way, we are going to add a handle to the lantern made with strips of red and yellow cardboard.

Finally, we proceed to make a tassel. To do this, we will make fine cuts in a rectangular piece of cardboard as shown in the image. Then we roll it up and fasten it with golden thread. We glue it to the bottom of the lantern.
Finalmente, procedemos a realizar una borla. Para ello vamos a hacer cortes finos en un trozo de cartulina rectangular como vemos en la imagen. Luego enrollamos y sujetamos con hilo dorado. Pegamos en la parte de abajo de la lámpara.
