Why these cardboard clouds make a difference

Shop-bought decorations often look the same everywhere. With blanks in your chosen size, you create something with your own handwriting on it. Paint them playfully for a child's room or keep them simple in one colour for the wedding table. The shapes are already cleanly cut, so you skip the tedious part. You start straight away with the fun part.

Material & finish

The clouds are made of bookbinding-quality solid board. It's a dense, stable material. It feels pleasantly firm and doesn't warp easily when you paint it. The surface is smooth. The laser cutting turns the edges brown. This is typical of the process, and on many craft projects the brown edge even works as a natural frame. The board is untreated, so you can decorate it straight away. Every cutout is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the cardboard clouds

• For a children's party: large clouds on the wall, small ones as a garland over the table. Your party theme is clear as soon as guests walk in.
• At the craft table: the children paint each cloud themselves. At the end, their room has decorations they're proud of.
• For a wedding or engagement: small clouds as name cards or table scatter. Write on them, paint them or add stickers to match the occasion.
• In a shop window or café: arrange different sizes in layers in your display. Your themed decorations for a holiday or season are quick to set up and just as quick to change.
• As a gift tag: write a few words on a mini cloud and tie it to a birthday present. Even the wrapping shows you've put thought into it.

Good to know about bookbinding board

Bookbinding board is the classic material for book covers. It has to keep its shape for decades, so it's pressed especially dense and firm. Your decorations benefit from exactly this stability. The clouds stand or hang flat and don't warp easily. They hold paint, glue and embellishments reliably.

Care & durability

There isn't much to do. Store the cutouts dry and flat, and they'll keep their shape for a long time. Avoid constant moisture, as the board is untreated. If you want to display the clouds outdoors, it's best to seal them with varnish.
