Saltbox Lanterns

I Got these lanterns painted up and done today. I did 3 different ones, 2 of the same size, but different colored saltbox houses and then 1 smaller lantern. These are glass globes in these lanterns so they are fragile! This is a design by Stephanie Butler and is out of a Create & Decorate magazine from last year. The globes are painted, then crackled for that aged look and then stained. The lantern has a design of berries, branches and snow around the top and the bottom. These have been sprayed with a gloss sealer.
