  Crow Lantern Favors

  To make these crow lantern favors, SueElle covered 2 white paper lanterns with colored tissue paper, and then added paper wings, a paper tail, and a tissue-paper-covered Styrofoam beak. The stems were made out of pipe cleaners covered with florist tape, and the eyes, wooden red beads. She then filled the lanterns with candy and treats for her guests.
