Steps

1. Cut the corners of the plastic A4 sheet as shown. You can use half of a plastic A4 sheet instead of a plastic slipcase. 

2. Cut flames from the colored paper in the different sizes as shown in the picture. 

3. Stick the paper onto the A4 plastic sheet with the glue stick, starting with the yellow flames. Follow the order as shown in the picture. 

4. Wrap the paper like a funnel around the Sticklight and tape the ends to hold it in place. 

5. Wrap and tie string around the Sticklight and a piece of the paper flame to keep the flames from sliding down.

GUIDELIGHT
The multifunctional and rechargeable Guidelight, designed by Floris Schoonderbeek, provides more than just light. It is a romantic mood light, adventurous flashlight and focus spotlight all in one. Take the Guidelight to the campsite, for example. Turn on the Guidelight, grab a handful of nuts and pour a glass of wine: your evening outside can go on for a while. The light source of the Guidelight can easily be infinitely dimmed. A fully charged Guidelight equals 5-100 hours of use, depending on the light intensity. Combine the durable designer lamp with our Hook Set to hang the Guidelight on the wall, ceiling or on a tree branch. The Guidelight has an LED bulb with a lifespan of approximately 50,000 hours. The battery is charged via a USB-C port (cable excluded). The lamp is also suitable for outdoor use and is dripping waterproof. Where will the Guidelight take you?
