Kitty Baby Mobile




So, I've been told that I am a little too obsessed with cats.  I guess it's no secret that I love my four legged babies.  You have probably also guessed that if was living alone, I probably would be the crazy cat lady.  =)

Anyway, since I am decorating Katherine's room with kittens, I needed a cat baby mobile.  These are actually very hard to come across.  I have searched and searched the internet looking for these.  I found probably a total of two.  And I wasn't really "in love" with the either one of them.  This is when I decided to make something of my own! 

I started with two wooden dowels.  I sowed pink felt around the dowels and  then attached them.  I then made myself 4 of what I have been calling my mini-kitties.  I used colors that I had already been using in Kat's room.  I also used yellow and green yarn, which were not colors in the room, but they went well with project.  I made some flowers as the center of the mobile for something else for her to look up at.  I then made itty-bitty flowers to come down off the chains the cats were hanging from. 

I actually had everything that I used to make this, so I paid absolutely nothing for her mobile!  It did take me around 10 hours total to make this, but I think it was well worth it.  The picture just doesn't do it justice.  I think this is my favorite thing that I have ever made!
