Today we have this awesome guest post from Ann-Marie…
I love an elaborate project just as much as the next person, but sometimes it’s nice to go back to basics. For this DIY, I’m putting a modern twist on a grade school classic: paper airplanes!

To begin, I gathered a handful of patterned papers, baker’s twine, adhesive, and a sturdy branch.

Next, I trimmed the papers down to differing sizes and folded them into paper airplanes (this is a great tutorial: http://www. 10paperairplanes.com/how-to- make-paper-airplanes/03-the- arrow.html).


From there, I chose my three favorite airplanes and punched a hole in each using a toothpick.

After all the holes were punched, I threaded a strand of baker’s twine through each airplane and knotted it to the branch.

Once all the airplanes were secured, I grabbed another string and tied it to each end of the branch so I could hang the mobile on a wall. This mobile is perfect for adding a playful touch to any room!
