I made this last night!
It’s the mobile for Emberlynn’s room! No music or sound or spinning but thats what those projection machines are for 🙂
It took about 3 hours start to finish and I am SO in love with it. I cannot wait to start the finishing touches and then post the nursery photos (and maybe the basement ones too!)
I used my Cricut machine and cut out the elephants out of cardstock (the same that I used for her name letters) and then strung them with my hubby’s fishing line using a needle and thread and some pretty jewels and pearls that I found at Michaels. I did different patterns and sizes and then organized them on the wreath ring I also purchased at Michaels. Finally I took some ribbon and cut them all the same lengths and then tied them on the ring to hide the crazy fishing line. All that I have left is to paint the most beautiful wall mounting piece grey and then hang it in the nursery!
1 project down and about 4 more to go. I still need to make a lamp, the bow holder, paint a shelf & some baskets & frame a few pictures, then I can be done with projects and her room should be ready!
Yay Friday!

Oh Thank you ladies! Carrie I totally agree that they are dangerous. That is why I am trying to be more crafty in the nursery dept because it's cheaper this way then Etsy.
Welcome Amy!

New follower!! I love this! Congrats on baby #2. I cannot wait to see your bow holder, my daughter's are all shoved in a drawer, I would love a nice way to display them, but she had a TON.

This is cool! Girls are dangerous. Since Bailey was born, I've spent WAY too much time at the craft store!
