I made this for my daughter’s room because we have this Galaxy Light that helps her fall asleep peacefully. This mobile adds something for her to watch as she dreams of shooting stars and gas giants. Plus it goes with most nursery décor and you can customize it with the yarn of your choosing. I chose a pale pink yarn to give it that little bit of femininity for a baby girl’s nursery.

What You’ll Need:

PLAN-ET

Start this DIY mobile by printing and cutting out the planets.
Place hot glue down the center of the back of one side of the planet.
Add yarn and hold tight until dry.
Cover the same side with hot glue and place the back of the other planet cut out over it, lining up shapes.
Cut the yarn from the planet no more than 7 inches long (FOR CHILD SAFETY STANDARDS).
Next, hot glue the two chop sticks together at the center.
Start at one end and hot glue the yarn to the tip.
Wrap the yarn around the stick all the way across.
Repeat with the other chopstick.
Once everything is ready, lay out your materials and start tying your planets to the chopsticks at various places and adjust to various lengths.
Remember the the order of distance from the Sun: Mercury, Venus, Earth Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.
