How To Make A Cloud

When you are taken over by a desire to change something in your house, you start looking for a variety of original solutions. If you want to make instant changes or bring fresh colors, then why not think about hanging clouds!

You need the following materials and tools:

• Cotton wool in unlimited quantities (it all depends on how many clouds you want to create);
• Starch;
• Water;
• A glass;
• A pot or ladle (a plate with a wide neck);
• Tea spoon.

Firstly, you need to prepare the paste:

1. Pour a glass of cold water in a pot;
2. Evenly mix two teaspoons of starch;
3. Put the pot with the starch on fire, constantly stirring a hazy liquid;
4. Do not bring the mix to the boil and stir all the time;
5. When the mash gains consistency similar to sour cream, put it aside from the heat and let it cool.

Now, let us make the clouds:

1. It is necessary to form clumps of wool, any size you want;
2. Prepare another container with a wide bottom for dipping the clumps;
3. Next, pour a little glue to cover the bottom and start rolling your clumps in this creamy liquid;
4. Do not soak the cotton clumps – just coat them lightly in the glue;
5. Combine the clumps with each other to form the clouds.

If you want the clouds to have a finished look, you should put the wet clouds on a flat surface and let them dry, turning them from time to time.

These clouds will become a wonderful decoration of the nursery or bedroom. Hang them on a rope from the ceiling and enjoy the lightness of feathery clumps.
