Frequently asked questions

Do you have a step-by-step video showing how to assemble my lantern?

Yes! We have easy-to-follow step-by-step videos showing how to assemble lanterns with Vasili Lights pre-cut templates and glue at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCy45__6Wtl_SBIN3o5loQgg

What comes with DIY Paper Lamp Kit?

Each kit includes pre-cut paper templates, which you assemble into the actual lantern/lampshade. Those parts are packed into a solid cardboard envelope and sent to you together with an illustrated step-by-step assembly guide. The cord set and bulb are NOT included, this is a lampshade only. The lampshade fits around standard lightbulbs. You can easily attach it to almost any pendant light fitting which you have in your house.

What glue should I use for successful assembly?

Before starting your DIY paper lantern, please keep the following in mind:

- For the best results, we recommend using UHU All Purpose Adhesive or Wood Glue (PVA-based).

To guide you through the glueing process, refer to a helpful how-to video with step-by-step instructions at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCy45__6Wtl_SBIN3o5loQgg.
While we aim to provide a seamless crafting experience, please note that we cannot guarantee outcomes due to various factors, such as environmental conditions and individual crafting techniques.
We are not responsible for any issues that may arise from using glue during the assembly process.
We encourage you to be careful and creative. If you have any concerns, feel free to contact us.

Happy crafting!

What type of bulb should I use?

When it comes to lighting, safety is always a top priority.
LED bulbs are safe because they don't produce heat. That's why we've designed our DIY paper lanterns and pre-assembled lampshades to be used only with LED light bulbs.
LED bulbs can last up to 25 times longer than their incandescent counterparts, making them an energy-efficient and more sustainable option for your home.
By using LED light bulbs with our lampshades, you can have peace of mind knowing that you're not only making a safe choice for your household but also a responsible one for the environment.

How long does it take to assemble the DIY paper lantern?

Few hours. Depends on your skills and how much of a perfectionist you are.
Maybe it will take longer if you take a break to move your body or shift your attention sometimes but it will help you enjoy the process. See it as a way to escape stressful everyday moments. Fall in love with the process and the results will come.

The pre-assembled lamps are handmade from paperlike fabric. What's so special about this material?

Made from cellulose fibre, paperlike fabric is a natural and durable material derived from wood. Unlike regular paper, it is remarkably tear-resistant, water-resistant (washable), and long-lasting.
The paperlike fabric has a matte finish and the translucent qualities of traditional paper.
Embracing sustainability, paperlike fabric is made from renewable resources and is biodegradable.
By choosing our lampshades, you opt for a beautiful and eco-friendly lighting solution, making a positive impact on the environment.
Illuminate your world with style and sustainability by choosing our pre-assembled lampshades.
