We used a gold macrame ring, fishing line, and balsa wood.
We found a simple tree template and used it to trace and cut out three different sized trees.
Seth used a tiny drill bit to drill a small hole in the top of each tree.
Then, Seth left 1/3 of them natural, stained 1/3 with a light coat of Minwax's Special Walnut stain, and stained the remaining 1/3 with a heavy coat of Minwax's Special Walnut stain.
Then, I simply used fishing line and tied the trees onto the macrame ring in a random design. I varied their heights and the different colors as I went along.
We tied three lengths of fishing line at even intervals around the top of the ring, brought them together, tied a knot, and hung the mobile on a white screw hook.
Simple as that. :)
