I love how a beautiful paper star lantern can brighten up a room with illumination and elegance. Both of my teenage daughters asked for one for Christmas, and I actually spent a small fortune on them in the mall before I discovered StarLanterns.net. 

StarLanterns.net has a huge selection of the most beautiful, intriquite designs and colors of paper star lanterns for unbelievably affordable prices. They are stunning and so easy to put together. I recieved a gorgeous white paper star lantern that I have hanging in my bedroom. I got rid of my old boring lamp, because my paper star lamp adds enough brightness and cheerfulness to my room. I love it!

The Story of Star Lanterns
 
For over 1000 years, Hindus in India have celebrated Diwali. Also known as the festival of lights, it is a time when families come together and celebrate. Imagine a combination of Independence day and Christmas.
 
The significance of Diwali comes from the Ramayana, one of Hinduism's holiest texts. In it, Rama triumphs over the forces of evil to save mankind. Kind of like a Hindu Superman, his victory is celebrated symbolically with firecrackers and all sorts of candles, lanterns and lights. The lights symbolize the triumph of Good over Evil, of light over darkness.
 
The star lanterns shown on this site, also called star lamps, are each handmade in India. They were created as part of this ancient celebration, but have taken on a life of their own in Western culture. They have been featured on HGTV and on MTV.
 
These happening hanging lanterns are a great way to spice up a bedroom, livingroom or dorm room. They are also great for parties and weddings. They can be subtle in solid white or stunning with tissue paper cover cut outs that look like stained glass when lit.
