It’s possible to create a custom mobile for your baby’s nursery with just a few materials. This little project is so inexpensive to create, and the best part is that you can tweak it to fit your nursery theme perfectly! Whip one up for yourself or give it as a gift for that expecting mama in your life.
Materials Needed:
- Wood slice
- Eye hooks
- Twine
- Drill
- Whatever you want to hang from your mobile
Step One: The first thing you need to do is attach three medium sized eye hooks from the top of the wood slice. Make sure they are pretty equal in distance from each other. Then, tie on the twine to each eye hook. The twine will come together and form another knot at the top in the last step.
Step Two: Next, attach as many eye hooks as you need, depending on what you are hanging from your mobile. I had six fish, so I attached one eye hook in the center and five around the edges. Then, tie on more twine and attach your trinkets.
Step Three: Tie the three top pieces of twine together in one knot and then tie the three strands to another eye hook in the ceiling or a screw, depending on how heavy your mobile ends up being
