Aren't these paper lanterns charming? I remember seeing them in Traditional Home magazine a few years ago and wondering where I could buy them. Unfortunately, I couldn't find them anywhere. I was thrilled this week to read about the lanterns at "Noted", the blog by the artists of Architectural Watercolors (see blog roll) and the creator of the lantern images. Noted posted that the lanterns are being produced again through Libretto Group. Thank you, AW. You've made my day.
I searched Google and found the paper lanterns (pictured above) at Careful Peach Boutique. However, I ordered two of the "Mr. Jefferson's Folly" lamp (below) and can't for for them to arrive. I plan to buy a few battery operated tea lights to pop inside a lantern and let it glow, let it glow, let it glow (sorry, I couldn't resist).
UPDATE: The lanterns may no longer be available at Careful Peach boutique. I'm trying to find another source and if I do, I'll post it here.

Hello and thank you so much for sharing these lovely lanterns. I was unable to find them at the link ~ there were notecards in the Belvedere (and some other precious pagoda styles as well), but no lanterns. I've searched the internet for over an hour ~ Any other sources you're aware of? I totally, totally NEED these....Need, Love, Want....yes, that equals NEED....Thanks for a wonderful and much enjoyed blog. TJF
ReplyDeleteHi TJF - I'm sorry you're having trouble finding the lanterns. I went the the Careful Peach link above and could not find them anymore. Maybe you could call them to find out if they are still in stock? I left a comment on Noted's blog asking them if they have any other sources for purchasing the lanterns. Libretto's website says their products are available on Amazon and "Love Notebooks" online, but I could not find them there either. Try Libretto's website though as as they have listed other retailers that may be in your area. Please let me know how it goes. Happy Thanksgiving.
