Butterfly Mobile for Kelly

A dear friend and her husband who have helped me navigate the waters of motherhood, opened up their wonderful home to me and my little one, and who have been an absolute saints to us were gifted this labor of love.

I love them both but when it comes to decorations in the home, I knew I was making this for Kelly's tastes. I had to create something with a strong nature feel. I used dropped branches found in Park National Forrest, handmade natural paper from Two Hands Paperie in Boulder, CO, and I tore apart an old brass necklace that I hadn't worn more than once. The brass hearts were fixed to chime in the wind and along with the glass beads give a bit of a whimsical feel.
