		<description>I don&#039;t mean to be stupid…but are you glueing the seams on the outside or inside. I assumed inside so it would look nicer, but I can&#039;t seem to figure out how to get the glue inside once they are rubberbanded together. Any help appreciated!</description>

		<description>I would love to make these for my wedding but I can&#039;t decide on how big the frames should be. What size frames did you use when making the one on this website?</description>

		<description>About 5 years ago, made a bunch of the lanterns for a high school senior tribute dinner and reuse every year.  Things I found out:

Since reusing frames for many years, still tape the vellum in so it can be easily removed for next year.  I use colored duct tape cut to size to attach the side seams of the frames on 2 sides only.  The duct tape is cheap and easy to apply and repair.  I only tape 2 out of the 3 seams so the frames can be laid flat for storage. They still stand up well and if you want, you can duct tape all 3 seams and remove 1 later for storage.   I place paper towels between each unfolded lantern to protect the paint and then they are stackable.  This year, I needed more frames and at Dollar Tree, found a bunch of framed gothic prints for $1 each.  Got rid of the print and glass and had perfect frames without even painting them!  (The frames were black and looked great with the grayscale vellem photos)</description>

		<description>Unfortunately, a couple really important people in our family can&#039;t be with us on our special day. I&#039;ve been looking everywhere for memorial frames that aren&#039;t too, well, grim. This would be perfect. And then on the outside of the frame we can hot glue some cute little embelishments as well. I ADORE this! It&#039;s exactly what I&#039;ve been looking for! 
Thanks so much!</description>

		<description>I still make fun of her sometimes (ever seen Whatever, Martha? hilarious!) because some of her projects are... well, frivolous. but I&#039;ll be damned if she doesn&#039;t have some great DIY ideas &amp; recipes! </description>

		<description>Sorry I missed this the 1st time it was posted. Such a fun and smart idea.  
And yes all hail Martha! I used to make fun of her, (too bright and chipper) but now I love her site.  </description>

		<description>good question! I took them out because the Martha ones I was trying to copy just had the vellum. personally I think it might take away from that pretty matte glow, but I suppose it could work with or without the glass. </description>
