Here’s a fun little project that’s actually pretty unique, and will add some flare to your room thanks in part to TiffyQuake.
Now, you might have seen the article we featured here a few months ago about the cloud lamp that creates an incredible thunderstorm inside your bedroom, but as you can imagine it’s pretty expensive.
Which is probably something most people wouldn’t be able to splurge on, so we found this cloud lamp alternative.
You can always vary it up if you want something different, but we’ve included what they’ve used at the bottom of this article. All of which can be purchased from Amazon!
Different sizes of paper lanterns
Hot glue gun with sticks
Set of LED curtain lights
Clear string or fishing line
Cotton
Use the glue gun to apply the hot glue on the paper lantern… then start attaching the cotton
Using your wooden dowel, tie the string or fishing line around it
Hook one end to a hook in the ceiling / Do the same with the other end
Tie each ball individually and adjust the length as needed
Once you get your desired height, just keep adding your paper lanterns
Next, pull your LED lights through the base of the cloud
Plug it in and…….
Sweet!
Check out the video to see the steps and to see it in action
Below is a list of what you’ll need to make the cloud lamp
1. Cotton: Good – Fairfield Poly-Fil / Better – Raw Cotton Stuffing
3. Wooden dowel
4. Fishing line
5. Hot glue gun
7. Screw hooks
If you don’t have time to make one yourself these contemporary cloud lamps on Amazon look awesome and they’re aren’t overly expensive.
