This cloud shape was first designed as a decorative piece for my daughter’s bedroom. I loved the shape of it so much I wanted to do more with it. Getting it to rain on my houseplants took a lot of tinkering but the overall aesthetic effect was worth it. These clouds slowly drip 4 ounces of water over 5-10 minutes and in addition to allowing the plant to absorb the water more slowly they create a calm and aesthetic moment in my day.

I listed my rain clouds on Etsy on January of 2021. I am so glad that others have found them as pleasing as I do. The popularity of this product has taken me from artist to entrepreneur. I made over 3,500 rain clouds at home on my 3D printer until in December 2022  when we were able to get them manufactured by a local injection molding company. It was a lot of work to keep the same aesthetic and design quality but our manufacturing partner was amazing at understanding how important it was to us.

The move to manufacturing was a hard one for us to make. I am thrilled to be making these clouds here in Georgia with a partner who listened to us to make a product true to our vision. The best part is that they are able to make the clouds faster, better and with less waste than I was able to at home.

Not all plants enjoy being watered from above. If you notice your particular type of plant is not as healthy discontinue use as a watering device or try it on a different type of plant, the cloud is still a fun decorative element for your plants.
