TIPS:
Black & white photos are great for Halloween.
Oatmeal lids are sized perfectly for 8×10 photos.
A roll of paper towels makes a good form to wrap the photos around.
The lanterns can be easily disassembled for storage until next Halloween.
Consider using solar lights in the lantern to line your walkway. Just cut a hole in the bottom lid to insert the light stake.
Try using holiday twinkle lights to hang the lanterns in a garland. Simply cut a small X in the top lid to insert the bulbs.
