These giant cloud numbers are incredibly light, so you can move them easily. If you are concerned about them tipping over in an outdoor setting, fill plastic bags with Poly Pellets Weighted Stuffing Beads and tape the bags to the base of the numbers. This added weight will keep the marquee numbers from flipping too easily.
You can also mount these numbers on a wall to create decor. They’re so light you can hang them almost anywhere! They can be incorporated with a balloon wall or arch to create an impressive display! There are so many ways you can use this giant cloud numbers and letters DIY. What will you create with this fun and unique idea?
