Why make one, when you can make many

Ice lanterns, that is. I just can’t seem to get enough of them!

This one is more like an ice shell, and it is just beautiful in the dusk!

I made one with black lace, that I quite like.

I like that the ice has frozen in swathes of white around the lace.

The candles burn down quite far – the lanterns stand on a thick layer of snow.

I also froze a bouquet of tulips.

I like how the lanterns look different when you see them from a different angle.

I like to mix the pretty with the bizarre, and pictures in ice are definitely the latter!

I’m also constructing a lantern made out of small chunks of ice made in silicone cupcake molds.

The tulips shift color in the daylight.

But it’s at dusk and nighttime that the lanterns really come into their own!

So much prettiness in the cold.
