Process
Step 1 – Grab your white rectangle paper and start hand-drawing a simple pattern
Step 2 – Draw a lot of those little points along your pattern; they are super important for your tealight
Step 3 – Grab your K1 Knife and cut all the little points and don’t forget to cut every part
Step 4 – Push down the points with your knife or pencil
Step 5 – Take your double-sided tape and fit a piece from top to bottom
Step 6 – Take the other end of the paper and stick it to the tape so it creates a “lampshade”
Step 7 – Insert tealight inside, and you’re done!
