Winter Village wooden lantern to build yourself/ Winter Village Holzlaterne zum Selberbauen

Hello everyone, today I would like to tell you about a special wooden lantern that I assembled as a gift. While searching for something unique, I came across a project that immediately caught my attention: a DIY Winter Village wooden lantern. I knew right away that this project would not only be a gift, but also an enjoyable experience to assemble. I sincerely hope that it will be well received and bring joy.

The lantern consists of delicate wooden elements that can be assembled to form a small winter village. I particularly liked the fact that a light source can be integrated, so that the lantern is not only decorative but also provides warm, atmospheric lighting. Its light is pleasant and bathes the entire lantern in a cosy atmosphere.

The construction – step by step
• First came the base: the base plate, which forms the foundation. I pressed the individual frames together and smoothed them with sandpaper.




• Then I inserted the inner side walls piece by piece and carefully secured them with wood glue.

• Next came the outer walls with their beautiful winter motifs. I initially just pinned them in place and only glued them later to ensure a stable construction.

• I patiently attached and glued every little decoration, every window and every roof edge.
• Then I assembled the upper arch and attached it to the rest of the lantern.



• It was particularly exciting to add the delicate details such as small stars, snowflakes and other ornaments – they give the lantern its unique character.
• Finally, I placed the light element in the recess provided in the base, which I also glued firmly in place.


After about four hours of work, it was finished: the beautiful wooden winter village lantern.

I was surprised at how much fun building it was. Now I understand why model builders enjoy their hobby so much:
• You become completely immersed in the work.
• Every little bit of progress is motivating.
• In the end, you hold something in your hands that you created yourself.
• Respect to those who took the trouble to pre-print such great wooden elements.
The lantern was inexpensive – the materials didn't cost much. The real value was in the time and enjoyment I invested. It was free time that I was happy to invest, and the reward is a beautiful result that is both a gift and a keepsake. The Winter Village wooden lantern was a great craft project for me, and I really hope that this gift is well received and brings joy. I will definitely buy another one and make it, but with a different motif. I like it so much that I think someone else might like it too, and I think it's a great gift idea.
With this in mind, I wish you all a wonderful weekend. Take care – see you next time! 💚

Thank you for reading my post and for your support. 😘

Hallo ihr Lieben, heute möchte ich euch von einer besonderen Holzlaterne erzählen, die ich als Geschenk zusammengebaut habe. Auf der Suche nach etwas Einzigartigem bin ich auf ein Projekt gestoßen, das mich sofort begeistert hat: eine Winter Village Holzlaterne zum Selberbauen. Schon beim ersten Blick wusste ich, dass dieses Projekt nicht nur ein Geschenk werden würde, sondern auch ein Erlebnis beim Zusammenbauen. Ich hoffe sehr, dass sie gut ankommt und Freude bereitet.
Die Laterne besteht aus feinen Holzelementen, die sich zu einem kleinen Winterdorf zusammensetzen lassen. Besonders schön fand ich, dass ein Leuchtelement integriert werden kann, sodass die Laterne am Ende nicht nur dekorativ wirkt, sondern auch eine warme, stimmungsvolle Beleuchtung spendet. Ihr Licht ist angenehm und taucht die gesamte Laterne in eine behagliche Atmosphäre.
Der Aufbau – Schritt für Schritt
• Zuerst kam die Basis: die Bodenplatte, die das Fundament bildet. Die einzelnen Rahmen habe ich zusammengedrückt und mit Schleifpapier geglättet.
• Danach setzte ich die inneren Seitenwände Stück für Stück ein und fixierte sie sorgfältig mit Holzleim.
• Anschließend folgten die äußeren Wände mit den wunderschönen winterlichen Motiven. Ich habe sie zunächst nur aufgesteckt und erst später verleimt, um eine stabile Konstruktion zu erhalten.
• Jede kleine Verzierung, jedes Fenster und jede Dachkante habe ich mit Geduld angebracht und verleimt.
• Danach baute ich den oberen Bogen zusammen und fixierte ihn am Rest der Laterne.
• Besonders spannend war es, die filigranen Details wie kleine Sterne, Schneeflocken und andere Ornamente einzusetzen – sie verleihen der Laterne ihren einzigartigen Charakter.
• Zum Schluss kam das Leuchtelement in die dafür vorgesehene Aussparung im Boden, die ich ebenfalls fest verklebt habe.
Nach etwa vier Stunden Arbeit war sie fertig: die wunderschöne Winterdorf-Laterne aus Holz.

Es hat mich überrascht, wie viel Spaß der Aufbau gemacht hat. Dabei habe ich verstanden, warum Modellbauer so viel Freude an ihrem Hobby haben:
• Man taucht völlig in die Arbeit ein.
• Jeder kleine Fortschritt motiviert.
• Am Ende hält man etwas in den Händen, das man selbst erschaffen hat.
• Respekt an jene, die sich die Mühe gemacht haben, solch tolle Holzelemente vorzudrucken.
Die Laterne war kostengünstig – das Material hat nicht viel gekostet. Der wahre Wert lag in der Zeit und Freude, die ich investiert habe. Es war Freizeit, die ich sehr gerne gegeben habe, und die Belohnung ist ein wunderschönes Ergebnis, das gleichzeitig Geschenk und Erinnerung ist. Die Winter Village Holzlaterne war für mich ein großartiges Bastelprojekt, und ich hoffe sehr, dass dieses Geschenk gut ankommt und Freude bereitet. Ich werde auf jeden Fall noch eine weitere kaufen und sie basteln, aber mit einem anderen Motiv. Ich finde sie so toll, dass ich glaube, dass sie auch anderen gefallen könnte, und ich halte sie für eine großartige Geschenkidee.
In diesem Sinne wünsche ich euch allen ein wunderschönes Wochenende. Lasst es euch gut gehen – bis zum nächsten Mal! 💚

Vielen Dank für das Lesen meines Beitrags und für eure Unterstützung. 😘
When I saw your post and this wonderful decoration you've made, I fell in love with it. It's ideal for the upcoming holidays and for providing soft lighting where you can see that winter landscape with a small town, which looks spectacular when you turn on the lantern light.
Each small piece is so well assembled with the others, which takes so much patience and dedication that it is admirable. Wherever it is placed, it will shine and give off a beautiful energy because it is made with so much love. You have done a great job on this splendid craft. I love it. Thank you very much!

As you say, it's not only a beautiful decorative piece, but the assembly experience itself must be wonderful. Congratulations on this purchase and for having assembled it so well; I'm sure it will be the subject of many conversations about its beauty.
Yes, you've hit the nail on the head. It's wonderful that someone makes something like this so that you can work on it yourself. And it's not made of plastic, which is why I find it even more beautiful. Thank you very much for your kind words. Have a nice day. ✨
