The Hindu
Senior citizens recall the season of joy when Christmas decorations were made at home
On December 9, 40 students of Life School International at Vettickal, near Mulanthuruthy in Ernakulam district lit star-shaped lanterns that they had made from scratch with reed, paper, coconut shell and candle. Participants of the two-day workshop (on December 8 and 9) were taught by their art teacher Babykutty KC to make the eco-friendly lanterns.
Twinkling in myriad colours and shapes, star-shaped paper lanterns herald the season of cakes, wine, feasts and family reunions in Kerala. Come Christmas, the stars, big and small, are available in neighbourhood shops all over the State.
