Thinking give or take a few making a mobile? my sister is doing her baby's room in pink and brown circles,...
my sister is doing her baby's room in pink and brown circles, this is the bedding she is doing, http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.d... , but she can't find a mobile to go near it...so i was thinking i could go out and basically buy one cheap and untie the things that hang on it off, and stick topical ones on it...so my question is does anyone know where i can bring back pink stuffed balls, and brown ones that are small enough to do this beside.i would need 4 to complete the mobile..or if you know of one that would match, that would work too
It's a mobile. Don't make it look similar to everything else in the room make it look so awesome the kid wants to see it . Put some pictures of the " great " Aunt , Mommy and Daddy I don't know but don't make that mobile one and the same as every other baby's that's parents got their bedding from Walmart .Make it special
That bedding is super cute! You could go to Wal-Mart or a craft store, I approaching Hobby Lobby, and buy styrafoam balls in what ever size you want and cover them. It would be cute to use brown and pink feathers to cause it fluffy. Or you could use fabric, paper, etc. to enhance them. The styrafoam balls would be light immensity.
You could also cut out circles or rings from scrapbook paper. Vary the size and mix rings with circles. You can use ribbons, sequins, vellum, all sorts of fun things to embellish them. Just make sure that the newborn can't get a hold of it if you go that route.
If you want yard goods balls but can't sew then you could check beside a senior citizen center in your town. They usually have ladies who are appropriate seamstresses and they are always looking for projects to do. You might also check with an alteration business within your town. Sometimes they'll do small sewing projects.
If you're up for a sewing them yourself look at a pattern book in a craft/fabric store or online and you'll probably find a stencil for making stuffed balls.
Good luck!!
Answers: You might check beside your local craft or fabric stores.
You could try making some. use some ribbon and foam balls. A little cement would hold the ribbon in place. I know the foam 'balls' come in different sizes. Wooden beads would be another option (finished or shortened... get unfinished, and you can paint them)
I'd freshly suggest that anything you use, make it big enough it won't be a choke see, if it were to fall inwardly the baby's reach, and use non-toxic paints, if you paint.
Have Fun
