Tree branch from the garden
Fishing line
Staple gun & staples
Twine
Timber knobs in assorted sizes
Ceiling hook

This mobile is not only a cute idea for the nursery, but it makes a gorgeous decorative feature for anywhere around the home. It costs next to nothing and is a cinch to make!

Find the mid point of tree branch and tie a long strand of fishing line on 2 points either side of it so it will balance when hung.

Applying firm pressure, staple twine to the bottom of doorknob, then tie twine in a knot to secure.

Tie knobs to tree branch. Repeat step 2 for all knobs and hang at varying spaces and heights.

Paint branch and knobs if desired; we kept it natural for a Scandi look.

Hang mobile from fishing line on a ceiling hook — just be sure to keep it out of baby's reach!
