Mobile Art: 35 Beautiful Hanging Decorations for Your Home

by

Clair Youngs

Open to U.S. residents only please.

This is a super fun book filled with great, easy-to-make projects perfect to decorate your home in your favorite theme or material.

More about the book from the publisher Cico books

Follow Clare Youngs’ instructions to make your home a magical place, with these fluttering, softly spinning works of art. Whether you hang them in your window or from the ceiling, these mobiles add a charming, colourful touch to your interiors. There are bronzed paper leaves to hang in the autumn, a delicate floral filigree mobile and a cute elephant mobile for a child’s bedroom. The designs use a variety of crafting techniques – from sewing to origami and macrame – and each project comes with easy-to-follow instructions and step-by-step artworks. There’s also a helpful techniques section at the back that will be of real use to first-time crafters, handy time-saving tips that more confident crafters will appreciate, and a templates section.

Handmade with a Past: Tuesday’s Top Recycled Etsy Find

Art can speak volumes, but it doesn’t have to cost the earth—literally. This recycled artwork, framed and ready to hang, is a perfect example of how beauty can emerge from the unexpected. It’s made from upcycled materials, bringing new life to discarded objects in the most artistic way possible.

This piece has that effortlessly cool, modern feel that I just adore. It reminds me of the kind of art I used to make as a kid—finding bits and bobs around the house and combining them into something that just worked. Only now, this work is polished, framed, and ready to elevate your home decor. It’s sustainable art with a story to tell.

What’s really great about this kind of art is that it adds character, depth, and meaning to a space. It’s not just a pretty picture; it’s a reminder that beauty can come from reuse and recycling, and it’s a nod to those of us who want to surround ourselves with eco-friendly treasures.

Why we love it:

  • Made from recycled materials

  • Each piece is completely unique and crafted with care

  • A conversation starter for your sustainable home decor or eco-conscious gallery wall

If you’ve been looking to add a touch of meaningful, eco-friendly style to your walls, this recycled artwork is definitely the way to go.
