35. Felted Balls
Style Me Pretty made a dainty and girlishly charming DIY that anyone can replicate! Decide on the color scheme and go for it!
Some of these are beautiful, but really look like a potential choking hazard! A good mobile has bright colors or contrasting colors, and no pieces small enough to easily go in their mouths if something happened to fall. That crystal one is awful. No colors to be interesting to baby and a serious potential choking hazard. Pretty, but nothing I’d ever EVER hang over a crib.
