How to set up a paper lantern (help I'm a newbie)?

Question

sorry for my extremely naive question!

but i'm thinking of buying a paper lantern for my room (from this site: http://www.paperlanternstore.com/16ropapala.html) and tried to look around on the internet as to how i can go about setting it up. i know we need a cord, a bulb and the paper lantern itself - but anything else? i was also wondering if there was a tutorial anywhere that highlighted how to go about setting it up. thank you!

Nope and once you get the lantern stretched out and the framing wire inside it, it makes the light fitting itself easy.. the extension you buy should just literally s***w into the old fitting and extend to the new s***w in light bulb fixture, it acts exactly the same way an extension cord does but for a light fitting. Then you just wrap the cord through the "C" shaped wire inside the lamp to hold it up and in place and you have a new light fitting.
