Fish Mobile

Here's a mobile featuring fish

This mobile features fish but any design can be used.
I like the texture from the foil design on this version


Materials
CD/DVD
Cardboard or toilet rolls (for a more 3D effect)
Scissors
Pencil
String
Paint and brush
Foil
Glue (Prittstick)
Tape
Coloured pens

  Stage 1
-Cut fish shapes free hand or from stencil
(to make a perfect fish shape, fold a piece of card in half and draw half a fish shape along the fold. Cut out and the shape will be symmetrical)
-Cut out

Stage 2 (Optional)
-At this point you can add the foil texture
-Glue the card
-Crumple the foil a bit
-Glue card onto the foil
-Cut out

Stage 3 (Optional)
-Draw a design on the foil
-Use watered-down paint to decorate

Alternatively, you could keep the design simple and just add an outline instead of using foil

Stage 4
-Tape string to the fish
-Tape the string to the front of a CD/DVD
-Loop a longer piece of string through the CD/DVD
(You could just attach the fish to a piece of string but for the mobile it weighs it down)

 Stage 5
-Draw around the CD/DVD onto a piece of card/paper
-Cut out, decorate and stick on to cover the original design of the CD/DVD
 Or you could cover in foil

And that's it!
