If you’re a little foggy about how to make your room stand out, consider adding some sky-themed fun with cloud decor. It’s a good reminder to look up, even if it’s from the comfort of your own home. Here’s a bunch of gorgeous rooms that have been decorated with fluffy clouds in a variety of ways – from wallpaper, to artwork, to lighting. They’re proof that when it rains, it pours…

Cloud wallpaper
The right wallpaper has the ability to transform any room. It takes bedrooms in particular from plain to insanely special, and works best if you keep the rest of the decor relatively plain to avoid busyness. You’ll have your head in the clouds with this fluffy blue wallpaper, and lying on the daybed will make you feel like you’re floating through a soft blue sky.

Have an old dresser that you want to spruce up? If you’d like it to fit in with the rest of the room but still be a bit of a feature – cover it with matching cloud wallpaper. This particular wallpaper is called Storm Clouds by wallpaper designer Abigail Edwards, who notes that “a touch of drama is added with flashes of bright white lightning.” Her very detailed hand-drawn design should not just be left for a rainy day.

This Daydream wallpaper gives this nursery that summer feeling, with swallows flying among fluffy clouds. “The fun wallpaper was the inspiration for the nursery,” says the designer. The room is a good example of how to make clashing prints work well (the wallpaper and the rug) without it being overwhelming. Cloud wallpaper is great for a gender-neutral nursery.

Every dark cloud has a silver lining, especially the ones on this wallpaper. The dramatic grey clouds pictured in Nuvole wallpaper by Piero Fornasetti are particularly intriguing. While not overly cheery, the moody nature of the print is exhilarating.
