heart mobile {craft}

in the valentine’s day package my mama sent- she included this sweet heart mobile that she made…

i’m in love with it.. with how simple it is to make, and how the possibilities are endless… it adds just an extra little touch of magic to your space. bright and cheerful.
whenever claire has a room of her own, i plan on hanging this one in there


a quick search will bring you lots of different ideas to play around with – and, it’d be the perfect free afternoon craft with kids

go outside and look for twigs to use..
find old wire hangers to bend into circles, use an old wooden embroidery hoop.
find some yarn, bakers twine, embroidery thread, sewing thread
cut out some magazines, some cardboard, some fabric, some fimo clay
use some goodies gathered on your nature walk
string it all together and hang it up, and make another to send to someone to brighten their day and their space with your magic and love.

    I just bought an embroidery hoop today to do this!! Felt is my best friend these days… I’m in love with cheering up my house.
