Procedure
Keep following these steps one by one:

3. Now cut the lace from the bottom side of the hoop and be as much precise while you cut it.
4. Take the hot glue gun and fix the tea light that is battery operated, to the bottom edge of the hoop.
5. Use the jewelry cord to tie the top of the hoop so that it can make use for the hanging purpose.

Things to watch out for

· The place that is used for the hanging of the lace lanterns must be firm and quite tough enough to hold the lanterns.
