I went crazy and made six different mobiles, and this is one of my favorites. It's easy to make and really pretty. You probably have all the materials at home already!

You Will Need (6 things)

  • Wooden embroidery Loop
  • Magazine pages
  • Darning Needle
  • String
  • Glue
  • Wooden Buttons

Steps (4 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut small rectangles out of magazine pages.

  2. 2

    Fold the rectangles into paper planes. About 12 planes will be enough for a mobile. There are so many tutorials online on how to fold paper planes, pick one you like!

  3. 3

    Cut four pieces of string in various lengths. Thread the needle with the string and pierce the planes with the needle. Thread three planes on each piece of string. Using a small amount of glue, glue the planes to the string.

  4. 4

    Tie the string to the embroidery loop and tie a button at the end of each string. Hang the mobile in four pieces of string and you’re done!
