Scrap Wood Lantern
I've made one and they're really easy to make. I used poplar wood for mine. Got the wood from Home Depot. Mixed water and paint together to "stain" the wood. Added a rope for a handle and found an LED candle at Hobby Lobby.
The top piece is a furniture leg I found at HD. See pics

These are one of the most popular posts on our blog! We also have a lantern made of 2x4s!
Hometalk had some made out of four matching picture frames, attached to a wood base. They were cute
Thanks :)) I did find the one I wanted though :))
