How to Make Your Own Emergency Lantern

But no matter how committed we are to preparedness, we all make mistakes. (Yes, even me!) Maybe you packed candles in your emergency preparedness kit but forgot to include matches or a lighter. Maybe you didn’t pack enough flashlights, or the ones you did pack aren’t bright enough for your lighting needs.
