Autumn-colored Paper Lanterns
You’ve doubtlessly seen those strings of round paper lanterns hanging outside in people’s yards for parties (if not on person, then at least on television). Well, these are the same idea, only they’re colored orange and brown for autumn entertaining. Throw a few big pumpkins around the deck, and you’ll have the perfect Halloween or Thanksgiving setting. (This is assuming you live somewhere warm enough to loiter outside in the fall.)
These lanterns will run you about $10 for a 10-pack of lanterns 4 inches in diameter. The string isn’t included, though, so you’ll have to hunt something appropriate down on your own.
