I got the lanterns from a shop called The Range £25.99 and I got some battery operated mirco led fairy lights from a local garden centre for £2.99 for 80 bulb ones. Then stuck the battery packs on the inside top to hide them and just chucked the lights in so they were all messy. I used two Led fairy light sets per lantern. You can get the lights on amazon too.
And then you can get some smaller 20 light ones that run off watch batteries.
I don't know how great they are as I haven't bought them yet but reviews are good.
I do have a long set of these style of lights that plug into the mains and I think they're amazing. Very bright and the wire is hard to see. I just hope the battery ones can generate enough power but LEDs in general are very low power so it should be fine .
