I am thankful for long naptimes that allow me to get really simple, moderately stupid projects done.
Hanging Head Mobile
So, I made this for Porty because he stares into space all the time (well, he is 4 months old). Here is how:1. Paint an embroidery hoop white.
2. Glue the hoop together at two points.
3. Tie various types of ribbon (not too thick or it's too hard to tie) around animal finger puppets (I got mine from IKEA.)
4. Tie the ribbon-choked animals to the embroidery hoop. Cover the hardware of the embroidery hoop with a ribbon.
5. Attach fishing line and a thumbtack and hang it off the ceiling.
6. Place baby beneath and watch them stare.
