The photo below shows a Union Jack Sky Lantern unfolded and laid flat. To write a message on the lantern, only use a dry permanent marker with a thick head. Do not use sharp pencils or pens and be careful not to rip the delicate paper while drawing.

The wick / fuel cell is pre-assembled and attached to the bamboo ring with a thin fiberglass string. The wick / fuel cell is covered with protective sheet to avoid that the combustible migrates to the paper of the lantern. Please remove the protective sheet before igniting the corners of the wick / fuel cell.

Before lighting the fuel cell, bend two opposite corners of the wick / fuel cell and lit both corners with a lighter. Wait until you feel that the lanterns is pulling up and gently release the pressure of your fingers from the bamboo ring. The lanterns will start flying away in to the sky. Please read the instruction provided on the packaging prior to use it responsibly.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

To facilitate the launch, it is preferable if one person holds the lanterns and another person lights the fuel cell. Remove the lanterns from the packaging and gently swing in the air to unfold/open the lantern. Hold it upside down with the fuel cell at the top. Light two opposite corners of the fuel cell and allow the flame to spread across it.

Once the fuel cell is fully ignited, flip over your sky lantern so that the heat source starts to fill it up with hot air. Using both hands, gently hold the top and bottom of the lantern allowing the warm air from the flame to build up inside.

After around 30 seconds the Sky Lantern should begin to rise. Do not release the lantern too early. At this point keep holding the bamboo ring with both hands and only when you feel the lantern lifting on its own then let it free and enjoy watching fly in the sky while thinking of a wish. #MayAllYourWishComeTrue
