Guest Picks: Mobiles for All Ages
Mobiles can delight in more rooms than just nurseries. These sculptural art pieces are a visual treat anywhere in the home
Most nurseries include a mobile hanging over the crib. Mobiles are great for babies because they give them something interesting to look at as they drift of to dreamland. While I was recently searching out a mobile for my newest addition, I came across these lovely designs that I would be more than happy to display in a more grown-up space. Have you ever considered hanging a mobile in other areas of your home? — Danyelle from Dandee Designs
