Who hasn't dreamed of cuddling into the soft clouds? And although this is not possible in real life and the whole thing remains just a imagination, she does not prevent anything from shaping her own clouds and creating a romantic decoration for any room. The DIY clouds lamp is particularly suitable for this purpose, for which we would like to provide you with instructions.
DIY clouds lamp - an original craft idea
The DIY clouds lamp is really quickly and easy. You can not only hang them as a single model, for example, in the children's room, but design entire groups and thus receive a cloud of sky with which they can also decorate the wedding. During the day you will receive the white, fluffy clouds, as you know from a slightly cloudy, sunny day, while when you switched onLichtThe effect of a flashing rain cloud is created. Try the instructions once.
Materials
- cotton wool
- any lampshade
- hot glue gun
– Nylonfaden
-LED light (e.g. bicycle lamp)
Instructions
Instead of a lampshade, you can also use another scaffolding. Take a look at the handicraft shop and see what it is offered. For our examples, both such a scaffold and a lantern were used. Decide for yourself what is cheapest for you and the best way to like in terms of shape and size.
Cloud group
If you have decided not only to design one, but a larger group, you should choose scaffolding or, or, lampshades in different sizes. After all, the clouds are not all the same in heaven. In this way you get a more natural arrangement, which will look very effective, especially in the children's room.
ColoredLighter
The lamp can look even more original if you also use a colorful color or even combine several together instead of an ordinary light. At night you will receive interesting lighting effects that transform the room into a true fairytale country. An atmosphere that every girl dreams of!
1. First of all, you should make sure that you can hang up the lamp later. With all the cotton wool, this could be very difficult at the end. Use the nylon cord and tie it on the lantern, frame or lampshade. If you have chosen a light bulb with cable, you can also use it for hanging.
2. With the hot glue gun, now attach the cotton. In this step, it is important to note that the cotton wool must be attached in such a way that at the end there is a real -looking, artificial cloud. For this purpose, take a piece of cotton wool and only give a small drop of hot glue on it.
3. Glue them to any point on the frame. The piece should remain nice and fluffy. Do not take any too large pieces of cotton wool. The smaller these are, the more natural you can make the cloud look. Instead of cotton wool, you can also use filling material to stick. It all depends on how much you want to spend.
The cloudsshape
4. After each piece of cotton wool you can form a little. However, do not waste too much time with it, because the complete forms of the DIY cloud lamp takes place at the end when the entire lamp is glued.
5. Before you stick cloud completely, don't forget to attach the lamp to the lampshade. You can then either leave the hole open or close with cotton wool. Once the DIY clouds lamp is hung up, the opening is no longer visible.
PartyDecoration
The lights are also a great idea for a motto party or any other party. With this decoration, a children's birthday person looks particularly interesting for the children, but a baby shower is also a great occasion to make such clouds. Also design a fairytale wedding reception by not only hanging a DIY clouds lamp, but also several.
whenGift
After the party, the clouds can be distributed to the guests, so that even great guest gifts come out. In general, this is a great gift idea. So if you have such an occasion soon and have no idea for the right gift, you can consider this pretty accessory.
ElongatedClouds
If you want to get the classic, elongated shape, you can either search for a suitable frame (or even build it yourself from wire and network) or use two lampshades or frames side by side.
Table lamp
This variant is also very effective. With it you can decorate a writing or side table. For this purpose, you can easily stick an old lamp completely. In this way you will receive and light source in one and do not have to assemble it. The form of a mushroom mushroom is created after an explosion.
SimpleDesign
If the floor lamp has a thin stand like this, an effect is even created as if the cloud is floating in the air. A transparent design of the original lamp is of course even better. In principle, you can use any kind of lamp design. The main thing is that you like it.
Floor lamps
Not only small table lamps can be transformed into a cloud. You can do the same with an old floor lamp for the living or children's room. To do this, use the same instructions as for the pendant lamp, only that you do not need a cord for hanging.
Thunderstormdesign
The look of a storm cloud is given by the fact that the cotton wool is thinner in some places. The light can shine through the cotton wool and not in others. So this is something you should consider when sticking. A non -light design will not be as effective later at night as this variant.
Rain for thatClouds
Isn't the storm cloud enough for you yet? Would you also like to add rain or snow? You can do that in different ways. On the one hand, garlands are suitable from self -made drops or snowflakes. You can also replace them with glitter stones or snowflakes. But this variant with white fairy lights is even easier.
CloudtheCeiling
You are also welcome to redesign a ceiling lamp. This is especially a good idea if you want to save space. Here you can also combine several small lamps to create a real design. As I said, you can choose the colors yourself, depending on what kind of mood you want to create.
