Preparing for Baby: A Crib Mobile

7.19.2011

Today is crib mobile day!

Crocheted Crib Mobile

When looking through all of our things we had saved from my first daughter's baby days, I found this mobile.


It was in need of a little makeover to be cohesive with the room (and more my style now ;). So I took off all of the fabric and butterflies and added on some crochet balls.


They are easy to make. Here is a simple tutorial on making crocheted balls. You can easily change the numbers for what you are trying to do and make any other changes you like as well. I strung mine on fishing line and tied them on. I tried to make them vary in where they hung and all. 

Here are some other crib mobile diy's that are cute:
