Holiday Parols




Was over at beautiful inspiring blog musings & tidbits and fell in love with parols; Christmas lanterns in the Phillippines.

I'm drawn to the more neutral coloured images I found. For the ambitious crafters out there, I found this tutorial. I'm going to visit some nearby Filipino shops and see if I can bring a parol home. I'll let you know.

  2. Hi Lisa,

    Thank you so much for your comment and the mention on your blog!

    Aren't parols beautiful? A lot are made of paper, but my favorites are made from capiz shells. Hope you're able to find a special one for your own home :)

    Take care
