A while back, I saw this wall installation at Anthropologie and muttered something on Instagram about how I should make something similar. Months later, I finally did. And actually, it’s my newest DIY for Curbly (full tutorial + more photos here).
Ultimately, I changed a lot of things about the original piece that I saw, to make it a more practical in-home design and give it more of a ‘cloud’ feeling, which I love. Overall, I was happy with how it came out and the possibilities for future projects (like a full scale photo booth backdrop). Anyway, you can view more photos and catch the full tutorial here on Curbly if you’re interested.

P.S. Have you ever seen a window display or in-store installation that made you think, ‘Woah. I should DIY that!’? If so, I’d love to hear what it was.

JessicaThanks Jessica! This would be perfect for a kid’s playroom! I love that idea.
papernstitchThis is really great! I’ve seen a lot of cloud shaped installations around the web but this has a different character on its own. Very colorful and modern, I love it. 🙂
AllieThanks Allie. I appreciate that. Just checked out your blog, by the way, and love those geo coasters you created! They would go perfectly with this project.

Alexandra PettinatoHow fun! This is something that I wouldn’t ever imagine making into a DIY, and I love that I can adjust the colors in the pattern to reflect the room I want to put it in- and maybe even the shapes! Thanks for the idea! x
Kayli SchattnerWhoa! What an awesome idea! I love it! I’m going to have to try it myself 🙂
JenniferUnfortunately, I want to make almost every cute display I see. Jordan is constantly having to tell me no. Hahaha. Right this moment I’m trying to convince him that I need floor to ceiling shelves in the office. Just something simple – most likely just brackets and boards. I think it would look fantastic paired with wire storage baskets. Oops, now I’m rambling. Haha.
MargeauxSo colorful and creative — love it!
