I think you make a Blue Lantern by picking out some person or other, who has a heart fulla copious amounts of hope. Then you stick said person into a lantern shaped oven to bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until he/she correctly shouts out the poem you taught him/her earlier. Once they've done so correctly through the screaming and such, you take them out and place them on a wire rack to cool. Once cooled, you slather them with blue icing and enjoy. :3
But really. This is a cool tutorial. I should make one, except the Indigo Lanterns have sort of a crinkly stone-looking lantern that may be hard to replicate in clay.
Hmmm. There might be some ways to replicate a stone texture, actually. My suggestion would be to make your lantern, but cover the foil with a sort of thick layer of clay. Right before you pop it in the oven, crinkle a bit of foil and firmly press it into the clay, like a stamp. Do this all the way around the lantern, then cook it. That should give it a craggy appearance.
Oooor maybe use a /thin/ layer of clay, and crinkle up the foil before you wrap it. Then gently work the clay into the nooks and crannies with a toothpick.
And then, I would have to put it on my staff and walk about with it, looking mystical and all. :3
