How to make a Diy Baby Mobile

Babies love high contrast!The  reason I started making baby mobiles is because I learned from Heckle’s physiotherapist that babies love black and white or high contrast. Yet, most of the mobiles I see in the shops are pastel colours with not much happening when you look up at them from the baby’s perspective. This means they may look pretty for adults, but they’re not that interesting for babies. You can choose any color felt to work in any scheme, however I would like to recommend that you use one very dark color or black and one very light colour or white. This will provide the interesting bits for the baby. The rest of the colors you can choose to keep the parents happy. Here's how to make a Diy Baby Mobile for yourself;


1. Outline the stencil on the cardboard and cut out. Draw an outline 1/4 inch wider than the stencil on to the card and cut out. Use this bigger cut out and draw an outline 1/4 inch wider and cut out. You should have three cardboard cut outs of birds, each 1/4 inch bigger than the other.

2. Pencil cut outs onto fabric and use different material for the different sizes of cut outs that you have created.

3. Now cut out  the fabric for your Diy baby Mobile.

4. Now glue the cut out onto the fabric of the smaller cut out, or as many that you are doing.

5. After that, use a needle and fishing line with a bead through the middle of the cut outs.

6. Now glue the final cut out over the bottom of the cut outs, so you don't see the bead.

7. After the glue dries, tie the fishing line onto a Diy baby mobile Kit and You are Done!
