folders saved on cloud

My desktop and documents folders are saved on my iCloud. However, I want them saved on my MacBook Air hard drive. My iCloud is full. How do I make this change?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.6

Move items to your Mac and remove them from iCloud Drive

  • On your Mac, drag items from iCloud drive to another folder in the Finder sidebar or on the desktop, such as Downloads, Movies, Music and Pictures. 
  • The items are copied to your Mac and removed from iCloud Drive on all your devices set up for iCloud. If you change your mind, you can drag items back to iCloud Drive.
