My sister was having a baby shower and her friends and I were trying to decide on the party decor and her bestie said, hey why not create a real shower! We sort of looked lost at that point and she pressed on, showing us this fabulous Youtube video of actual cloud lights showering! We couldn’t wait to tackle this project and we could all see it in our mind’s eye and knew sis was going to fall in love with it. I was already planning the photos of her walking into the baby shower/ simulated cloud shower and grabbing some photos of the sheer wonderment I knew she was going to be expressing. We started by getting our materials together: Japanese Paper Lanterns, some batting from JoAnn’s Fabrics, a box cutter, scissors, plastic water bottles, small wire for hanging, battery operated lights from Michael’s Craft Store, and your trusty glue gun of course, where would we crafters be without our trusty glue guns? In trouble, that’s where, lol!

Then we stuffed our empty plastic water bottles with the battery operated lights we got from Michael’s Craft Store.

Then we glued the batting from JoAnn’s all over the bottle making our cloud puff, then threaded some small wire through the bottle to hang it.

We couldn’t believe how easy this was making these cloud lights, then we made some and slit the bottle lengthwise with the boxcutter and let the lights dangle out in a simulated rain shower.

When my sister walked in and saw her Rain Shower Baby Shower Decor she wept tears of joy, it was so beautiful.
