Four Sundays Advent Lanterns keep the tradition of lighting a candle on the first Sunday of advent, then one more each week until Christmas, in plain, geometric shapes inspired by the Bauhaus.

Each lantern is a simple cylinder with its number, 1 to 4, set into a round dish on the front and back. Place it over a battery-powered tea light, and the light glows through the walls of a white print. Set the four in a row on a table or windowsill, and turn on one more each Sunday.

This is a free 3D model to print yourself, on MakerWorld. Designed in Denmark by Printwise. The sand-colored images are 3D renders, and the photos show real prints in white.
