Favorite Things- Mobiles

Mobiles aren't just for hanging over baby cribs anymore. They can be a sweet, simple addition to pretty much any room.
There aren't really any rules to making mobiles. The more creative the better.
It's easy to personalize and customize a mobile by using a variety of materials, shapes, and colors.
Here are some pictures of mobiles that I thought were pretty cool, and below is a link on instructions to making a butterfly mobile.




This mobile is made out of wood, and would appeal to any animal lover out there.


Absolutely LOVE this white one. I think that I might try and make one sometime.


Like I said, using a variety of materials (in this case different kinds of paper) can make a mobile more special and unique.


This one amazes me; the paper art is pretty impressive.


Felts kittens make a cute mobile for a little girls room.



A mobile like this would be awesome in a boys room, and you can use toilet paper rolls for the body of the planes.
