Inspiration Gallery: Hand Painted Chinese Lanterns

Hand painted Chinese lanterns can be romantic, whimsical, exotic — or just the perfect splash of color to a room. One or two of them adds a little flavor to a room, while a bunch creates a theme.

 
 

You can find hand painted lanterns at Pearl River starting at $20.
