DIY: Birds on a Wire

I may be late coming to the table with this find. I feel like the mommy design blogosphere has been showcasing a plethora of creative mobiles lately. Well, in case you haven’t cruised the worldwide web for “handmade retro bird mobiles” in the past month, here’s something special to admire and if crafty enough, create on your own.

Thank you to Jonathan’s Journey, (he sure is cute) for posting this find originally and of course Spool for sharing their art and creativity for all to enjoy!

    I love this mobile!! What an adorable idea!! …I just finished my own slightly altered version of this and I had a lot of balancing trouble… my advice would be DEFINITELY include the bottom “single” bird – I thought this wouldn’t be necessary, but turns out – it is! And also, start assembling by balancing from the bottom up, as one comment says. :) This did the trick for me!

  6. […] The color inspiration came from a quilt Cassie made a few years back and the crib/crib bedding is from Walmart. Fearing that the notNeutral wall decals would not properly adhere due to the room’s textured walls, Cassie created her own version with a quart of paint, stencils made out of card stock, and a roll of masking tape. The green paint on the wall is Valspar 6003-3B Martinique Dawn in eggshell and the green used for the mural is Valspar MS245 Spiny Sea Urchin in semi-gloss.

    This is exactly what I have been looking for. I am designing my first baby’s nursery with a bird theme in mind. I love the mobile, but I have no clue how to sew. Any chance of purchasing this somewhere?
