    I was wondering what it was made from as I too thought it maybe metal. A warming fireside ornament Astrid to light up our way into Winter. Warm Hugs Tracey xx

    Fabulous and creative use of those travel bag contents, Astrid! This is a gorgeous lantern that can decorate your home throughout the winter. I love the colors and texture, and you had me at the snowy background on the wood pieces. Your use of the acetate is so clever, and makes this glow beautifully when illuminated! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
