Kids mobile :)

As you all may know my little girl is out of her crib now, but I am in love with hanging mobiles.  I thought it would be cute to hang over her future desk space and have the can lighting shine through it.  So here goes...

First you get the colored paper you want and punch out the desired shapes. I chose circles, but I think butterflies would be cute too.

Then I just used my sewing machine and sewed a total of 12 circles in a row.  I think I made a total of 36 rows.  It all depends on how big of a hoop you have.  Next, tie them to the hoop.

I used a thin gage wire and cut two long pieces of it.  I made an X and tied them to the hoop.


I got out my handy glue gun and glued a piece of ribbon around the hoop to hide the thread.


Then, you hang in the desired spot.  It think it would be easier to do if you don't have a light in the middle of it.  I still need to straighten it out.


Hope you all like it!  It was fun and easy to make.  Enjoy crafting!!!
