Cardboard Weaving Stars Mobile

This beautiful mobile will look lovely hanging in your home. You may even like to decorate and personalise with glitter and sequins.

  • Step 1Paint 6 weaving frames in bright colours before you pop the weaving frames out from their packaging. Allow to dry.
  • Step 2Once dry, remove from their packaging.
  • Step 3Thread a needle with yarn. Tape the end of the yarn to the back of one of your weaving frames and begin weaving through all of the pre-punched holes.
  • Step 4Once you are finished weaving, tape the loose end of the yarn to the back of the weaving frame.
  • Step 5Repeat this process until you have 5 woven stars. The sixth star will become the main structure to hang all of your mobile stars from.
  • Step 6Using different length pieces of yarn, hang your stars from each point of your main structure star.
  • Step 7Cut 5 lengths of yarn to hang your mobile. Thread the yarn though each point of your main structure star. Gather the loose ends and tie a knot to secure.
