Diagtree Floating Water Lanterns 5.9-Inch 20-Pack — Biodegradable Paper Cubes with Tea Candles, White & Gold

Diagtree floating water lanterns are biodegradable 5.9-inch paper cube lights sold as a 20-piece set with tea candles for creating safe, temporary floating displays on ponds, pools, and calm waterways.

If you want an easy, atmospheric way to light up an outdoor gathering, memorial, or wedding without permanent fixtures, these Diagtree water lanterns give a soft warm glow and a classic oriental look. Each lantern ships flat, assembles in seconds, and includes one adhesive pad and one tea candle so you can place them on still water for short ceremonial or decorative use.

How do I set up and light the Diagtree floating lanterns?

Assembly is quick and requires no tools: unfold the pre-scored cube, attach the included adhesive pad and tea light, then light the candle and gently place the lantern on calm water. Use a long lighter for safety and hold the lantern steady until it floats freely.

• Unfold to 15cm × 15cm × 15cm (5.9" cube).
• Each lantern includes a tea candle and adhesive pad.
• Light tea candle, center inside lantern, then set on water.
• Best for ponds, streams, stone or concrete-lined pools, and calm water.

What materials and environmental considerations should I know?

The Diagtree lanterns are made from water-resistant paper designed to float and are 100% biodegradable, so they naturally break down after use. The construction minimizes lasting debris, but you should collect remnants after the event to be environmentally responsible.

• Material: water-proof paper with adhesive pad to protect candle.
• Color: white exterior with gold accents and warm candlelight effect.
• Biodegradable design—collect remains after floating if possible.
• Not suitable for plastic-lined pools or heavy wind conditions.

How long do the lanterns burn and how stable are they on water?

Each included tea candle burns about 60 minutes, while the paper lantern can float up to roughly six hours in calm water before becoming waterlogged. Wind and choppy water will shorten burn time and make lanterns less stable, so choose sheltered locations and avoid strong breezes.

• Tea candle burn time: approximately 60 minutes per candle.
• Floating longevity: up to 6 hours on peaceful water surfaces.
• Weight: about 1.16 oz (33g) per lantern for steady flotation.
• Avoid use on windy days or in plastic pools per manufacturer note.

Who is this for: The Diagtree 20-pack floating lanterns suit event hosts, wedding planners, memorial organizers, gardeners, and anyone wanting temporary atmospheric lighting for outdoor gatherings. They’re ideal when you need a portable, low-cost decorative solution that assembles quickly and creates a warm, reflective display on calm water—just plan to supervise use, collect any remnants afterward, and avoid plastic pools or blustery conditions.
