Fly high my boys! fly high!

As always, a ton of time has passed since my last post. I've been busy with a new (much larger) home, an almost toddler and a threenager. We've been trying to make new friends in our new city, so we've been intentionally been out and about a lot. I have to thank our local MOMS Club chapter for taking us in. But with the move and everything, i wanted to give the boy's room a bit of an unique touch. I found these plane mobiles online and got inspired https://www.etsy.com/nz/listing/192497246/felt-airplane-cloud-pdf-pattern-use-for?ref=shop_home_active_2

They were super easy to make, and also to give them your own little touch. I moved in the midst of making these, to a boy's room with high ceilings, so i had to come up with a creative way to display these without having to go all the way and nail 15' high. (I ended up hanging them on a line across two walls, and i think they couldn't have worked out better)

I had a ton of fun creating these, and to my delight, my baby boy shrieks in delight every time he sees them move by the wind.  This mommy feels accomplished :)

I also made one for my threenager so he didnt feel left out. He even asked for a cloud. My boys are so happy to see them in their room. It fills my heart to see their smiles in something so simple, yet they know mommy worked hard on it. I think it makes them like it more. 

Its a good reminder, for me, that time is all they need from you. <3 (and love, of course)

See how they came out below.






this last one is the one i made for my threenager. he was thrilled.

the dots you see on the wall are glow in the dark stars. I also added some of that so my threenager can relax when he lays down to sleep at night by looking at them. My hubby's idea. Hes a genius. Little guy loves them and I am sure it has helped to lull him to sleep since we put them up in their new room. I got them on amazon and they are super! (i got these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UAY6J1U?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00 ) they are still shinning a little when i go in to nurse my little one at 4am.


With the holidays coming i am sure i am either going to have a ton of crafts or just no time for any. Haha. We'll see how it goes.

PS- i also got cloud decals to finish up the look. I love them, too! i got these:
