DIY Baby Mobile

Want a unique, affordable, and adorable DIY crib mobile? Read on....
Picture
Materials Needed:
  • Old window frame (make sure there's no old lead paint on it)
  • Chicken wire
  • Staple gun
  • Chain
  • S hook & ceiling hook
  • 4 eye-bolts
  • Wood glue
  • 3 to 4 different fabrics (choose coordinating patterns and colors)
  • Wood stars
  • Jute
  • Flower balls (or get round Styrofoam and glue flowers to it)
  • Optional: Small set of twinkle lights
Start by visiting antique shops to find that perfect size window frame. We used one that's about 36"x24", or maybe you already have one just waiting for a project. Make sure there's no old lead paint on the frame. Then attach the chicken wire on one side with staples.

Cut your fabric into 2" wide strips by approximately 24" - 30" long (vary the lengths). Now start tying the strips to the chicken wire around the inner edge of the window frame, alternating your fabrics.

Now attach the stars and flower balls to the inner part of the window. We used jute to tie them to the chicken wire. The final step is to attach an eye-bolt to each corner of the window (we used a bit of wood glue as well for added strength) and then attach your chain to the eye-bolt. Bring all 4 chains up to the middle of the window and attach them to an s hook which you will then attach to your ceiling with the hook of your choice. Your chain length will be determined by your ceiling height and the height you want the mobile to hang above the crib.

*Optional - add a string of fairy or twinkle lights to add a special touch. Either use battery powered or make sure you have an outlet nearby (try to hide the cord).

There you go, a DIY crib mobile that is very unique and affordable! You can use any number of items to hang from the inner part such as small stuffed animals, hearts, cowboy hats, birds, beads, etc. If you make one of your own please send a picture in the comment section below, I'd love to see your version.
