I didn't do a tutorial for this but it's pretty simple. DH's mom had a huge wooden hoop and thought I might be able to make something out of it for my niece. Can I make something out of a ginormous wood circle? What's my name? Yep. Sho 'nuf I can make something out of that. Got some LED christmas lights and wrapped them around the hoop. Then wrapped some ribbon over that to cover the wires. Added a few hangy-down decorations and wrapped 25 yards of tulle ribbon over the hoop and lights. Taadaa. You got yourself a super girlie pink mobile/lamp/nightlight. Gotta use the LED lights though so it doesn't get hot, melt the tulle, and cause a fire.
Gotta have a bow on top. Don't look at the tacky looking PVC pipe stand but I'm telling you it's sure handy to have in the craft room to build rigs to hold stuff while you are working on it.
Made paper ball ornaments and then punched out some paper hearts, stacked three paper hearts, ran them thru my sewing maching and then folded the two outside hearts to make them 3-D.
Close up of the paper balls and hearts. The balls are fun to make. I may do a tutorial on this later.
With the LED lights plugged in and the flash on.
No flash.

ReplyDeleteThanks. My niece loved it. If I didn't think my husband would hate it, I'd have one in our room too. LOL.
