Hi Ladies,
I found these GORGEOUS eyelet chinese lanterns but they are PRICEY. However if you buy them direct from the factory they are super cheap but you have to buy a ton (3000) of them. I was thinking that if a bunch here wanted to team up I would be willing to order them and split them up for everyone (you would just pay the per lantern price and shipping). We could use paypal so it would be safe for all of us $$ wise and I would scan in the receipt for everyone so you would be sure i'm not cheating you.
