Decorating your way: When it comes to decoration it goes without saying that you want it to be the best.

This all is to ensure the highest standards of decoration.
Lately, paper lanterns are one form that has grown popular across continents and cultures.
Even if you select the most simple design and shape and add it to your decorations you will be stunned to see the charisma and elegance that it brings.
Beautiful materials used: Before deciding the perfect piece you need to first lay down your exact requirements.
So, if you need it for exteriors it might be medium sized for your house or much larger for your business.
These sizes are available ready-made and can also be customized according to demand.
You may also use the miniature lanterns commonly known as "baby's bottom" strung up in a row.
These lanterns are available in different patterns and materials.
More commonly used materials are tough paper, rice paper, nylon and silk, while the additional materials such as bamboo cuttings and metal frames are used for support, especially in giant sized lanterns.
Various lighting options: However there is still more to say on the subject, because surprisingly these lanterns come in a very wide range of lighting options.
Considering the fact that lighting arrangements are the most important part of any type of decoration these lanterns prove to be the best options of all.
The lighting part of the lantern again has different options like candles, battery-operated lights and electric bulbs.
The lantern casts a soothing light and this makes the environment very relaxing.
You can choose the material and lighting option to fit your decorating needs.
Enchanting colours to match your requirement: You will be amazed to see the wide range of colours used today.
There are of course the most common and basic colours alongside different new attractive shades, and colour combinations with matching light and dark shades of the same colour as well as contrasting combinations.
There are other rarer multicoloured types available too.
So, in order to determine which colour you need, you need to check what would match the best with the existing colour scheme of your interiors or exteriors, as impressions are important even from far away.
In short, the colour should be eye-catching as well as matching the existing colours.
Different designer shapes: The most common ones, which are also the traditional ones, are the round shaped or "big red" lanterns, the cylindrical or "rolling paper" lanterns and the "baby's bottom" lanterns which are small and can be used for exteriors as well as interiors.
There are other common shapes like the geometrical ones -cubical, triangular, pyramidal - and the crystal ones which are the real designer ones giving different unique shapes.
Besides these there are also other popular shapes like the star, the beehive, animals and so on.
After you have matched the shape with the others for interiors the choice is entirely yours.
