1. How long does it take for the glue to dry?

Typically, allowing at least 4-6 hours or overnight will ensure adequate drying time.

2. Can I use regular bulbs instead of LED lights?

It’s best to use LED lights, as they stay cool to the touch and are safer for prolonged use.

Reinforce your cloud with additional layers of cotton batting and glue for a sturdier structure.

Layering cotton in different textures and thicknesses will enhance the cloud’s fluffy appearance.

This lamp is best meant for indoor use, as outdoor elements could damage the materials.
