DIY Baby Mobile Tutorial + 5 other projects you'll love

How-To & DIY By on March 08, 2010 9

We're recent followers and avid readers of Holly Neufeld's craft-tacular family blog, {creat*loves}, and when we saw this DIY Baby Mobile tutorial go up we immediately contacted her about letting us borrow it to share it with you awesome folks!

This tutorial is actually ultra simple and uses just a few inexpensive crafting supplies that you may already have laying around: felt, buttons, embroidery hoops, yarn, needle and thread. And don't stop at flowers… think of spaceship shapes, circles and triangles, bugs and birds, monsters, jungle animals. There are just SO MANY possibilities!
