Intro Post

Today I'm going to light up your world - or at least show you a fun way to light up your world for yourself. I used my ScanNCut to create these very simple (but highly effective) cut paper leaf votives.

Boxes with cut outs

Lanterns

I used painted plastic to cover the cut areas, but you can also leave (pun intended) them completely open if you wish, as in this example below:

To be super safe, be sure to use battery operated LED votive candles inside, instead of real candles. If you're interested in making a project like this one, here are some helpful resources for you: Happy Fall!
