Open the lantern

Put a generous amount of glue on the Chinese lantern and stick the fluffed up cotton on it. It should start looking like a cloud.

Make sure the cotton cover is slightly uneven to give it a more cloudy look

Step 4

If you want a larger setup, you can use multiple lanterns of varying sizes

Step 5

Get those LED lights (Christmas/Diwali/New years) and  insert them inside the lantern

Step 6

Hang the lantern(Or lanterns if you created multiple) at a place of your choice and switch On your LED lights.

Your Cloud Light is ready

Tip: Try to get battery operated LED lights to avoid the ugly power wire coming from your cloud. Electricity operated are also cool
