DIY Krathong kit

Post by dtaai-maai »

My neighbour's daughter wants to put together her own Krathong for Loi Krathong. Does anyone know where she can buy the components?

There are so many materials that Krathongs are made from. It's really a case of using your imagination. The classic is made using a slice of a banana tree stem for the base. The trend is to make them from anything that is edible/biodegradable. Stay clear of polystyrene. There are lots of help on google including youtube clips on making your own.

You can usually buy the bits at impromptu stalls on the main roads. In past years there have been plenty locally on the Pala u rd
