Decorating with Hanging Lanterns

Hanging paper lanterns are a fun and elegant way to decorate for special occasions such as birthday party or wedding reception. They add a bit of whimsy to any event without going overboard, and can be incorporated into the decorations in various ways.

For a daytime event, you probably won’t light the lantern and can hang them by simply tying a piece of fishing line to the wire hook and then hanging them from the desired area. Another option is to string fishing line from point A to point B, and then hang single lines at different lengths attached to the paper lanterns on the main line. If the event takes place after the sun goes down, you can use illuminated paper lanterns to give a stunning glow to the party. Illuminated lanterns can be hung in the same manner as ones that are not lighted.



In fact, you can use hanging lanterns in various ways such as:

• Focal Point - Gather a few paper lanterns in a tight cluster and hang them above a central focal point, such as above the dance floor or buffet table.

• Multiple Focal Points - Hang paper lanterns that are of the small size and same height over the main focal point, and then use larger paper lanterns that hang a bit lower over various other areas that you want to draw the guests too.

• Monochromatic - Choose different sized lanterns that are of the same color, and suspend them each a different heights.

When using paper lanterns to decorate an event, you’re only limited to your imagination. The hanging lantern company is for sure a great help for you in any hanging lantern designs and ideas.
