    Yes! If you're making a cloud of fusible wadding, pull the wadding apart gently until it's really fine and very fluffy. Then, try using hot glue to attach the wadding to paper napkins. After that, you can hang the cloud on your light as a lantern.

    How do I get the lights in there?
    Community Answer
    Try putting in the lights just before stuffing in the last layer, then turn them on to adjust. You could hide the wire in the wire you hang it up with, or, if it's battery operated, stuff the pack in there, too.

    If you are interested in hanging it, take some twine and hot glue your cloud onto it! Then hang it up in a desired spot!

    What do I do if the cloud keeps falling apart?
    Community Answer
    You may not have used enough glue to hold the pieces together. It works best if you use hot glue.
