- 10 or 12 coffee filtered pre made Butterflies.
- Light string or heavy cotton
- Very thin wood in various sizes.
- Wood can be doling or for a more natural look twigs
- Cut the string / thread so that the ends of the body pipe cleaner are able to be attached
- Use a round turn and two half hitches for tying the string to the body pipe cleaner.
- Tie another longer piece of string to the string that is going between the ends of the body pipe cleaner.
- Place this attached butterfly to one side and finish tying the rest of the butterflies.
- Sort out the pieces of wood.
- The larger pieces will be going to the top of the mobile.
- Tie the butterflies onto the smaller pieces of wood.
- Again with round turns and two half hitches attach one piece of the next size smaller wood to the larger piece.
- Remember that both ends of the larger piece of wood should have a piece of wood attached.
- Starting from the smallest piece of wood - on each piece of wood find where the balance point is.
- It is at the balance point that the string between both pieces of wood will be attached.
- now that every piece of wood has something tied to it and all in in balance and tied tightly in place with a double over hand knot tie a loop in the stop piece of string.
- This loop will be hooked over something on the roof.
- Double check that the wood or butterflies will not be in someone's way as either the butterflies move with the breezes or the people move around the room
