- Tissue Fringe Lanterns
- Lanterns wrapped or fringed with bright, cascading strips of confetti-colored tissue paper.

- Oversized Lanterns with Confetti Garlands
- Use oversized white or pastel lanterns and hang confetti garlands or tassels underneath.

How to Use Them in Large Spaces
- Cluster in Groups: Hang in clusters (3–7 lanterns per group) with different sizes and heights to fill out volume.
- Create a Canopy: Stretch string or fishing line across the ceiling and hang lanterns in a grid or organic flow.
- Layered with Fairy Lights: Intertwine string lights through or around the lanterns for extra sparkle.
- Highlight Key Areas: Use over food tables, dance floors, or entryways to draw attention.
- Mix with Other Elements: Combine with streamers, banners, or paper fans for a more immersive setup.
Color Ideas Based on Event Type

- Birthday Parties: Rainbow or bright primary color confetti themes.
- Corporate Events: Match your brand colors with custom printed confetti or logos.
- Carnivals or Festivals: Bold neons, layered with glitter paper or metallic foils.
