Origami mobile with butterflies 10. August 2023

Fold a butterfly out of origami paper as shown in the video. Close it together with a small piece of double-sided adhesive tape.

Once you have made the desired number of butterflies for your mobile, it is time to attach string to each butterfly. Use a needle to lead the cotton string through the wings of the butterflies about 1 cm from the edge and secure.

Tie the other end of the string of each butterfly to the metal ring with a double half hitch as shown in the video. Attach the butterflies to the metal ring at varying lengths.

Cut four pieces of cotton string with a length of 80 cm each, fold each string in half, and tie a knot at each end.

Attach the four strings around the metal ring with even spaces, as shown in the video where the folded string is led around the metal ring and then in between itself. Pull tight.

Finally, gather all the nooses of the four strings, and tie them together with a small bow around another small piece of cotton string, creating a loop for hanging.

Now, your sweet origami mobile is ready to be hung up in the dear little one's room.
