The spooky season is almost here! This year, decorate your haunt with a unique Halloween lantern made with open source!
Typically, a portion of a lantern’s structure is opaque to block the light from within. What makes a lantern a lantern are the parts that are missing: windows cut from the structure so that light can escape. While it’s impractical for lighting, a lantern with windows in spooky shapes and lurking silhouettes can be atmospheric and a lot of fun to create.
