Fodder Challenge Day #12

Day #12 - Fodder Mobiles by Susanne Randers - the final project.

We needed a stick to hang our fodder from and any trinkets we wanted to use, plus yarn, beads and feathers. 

I foraged in the house and came up with a whittled stick made by my son when he was a kid so I sawed a piece off that. 

The yarn was from a knitted cardigan. I liked the bumpy texture although it wasn't the colour I intended for this but I went with the flow.

I found beads in the kids threading bead box (most of mine were too fine for the project). Various metal Euphemia including Tim Holtz trinkets, even an old "Victorian" hair clip (no idea how I came by that one!). 

Also a metal token found on the floor at church the week before last that no one seemed to want, and some old shank buttons in threes.

We were shown the tiered circles so I stuck to the same colour way for those. Did all this on the Friday evening then tried to sleep.......

I made it up on the Saturday morning, which went into Saturday afternoon and before long I realised it was nearly 3pm and I hadn't eaten anything!

Love my mobile which has pride of place in the conservatory.

I then realised I hadn't done the feather as an end piece nor actually watched the end videos of this project so I watched the rest of the project videos and made a little beaded feather which I have put on my curtain next to my craft table.

What a super end to a brilliant 12 day challenge
