It is very easy to make and for me it took 30 minutes to put everything together after I had all supplies.

Materials you will need you’ll need:

4 pinecones (if using pinecones from nature bake them before use in the oven for 45 minutes at 400 F to dry and debug them) or DIY pine cone gnomes
natural colour thread ( I use divided embroidery thread)
hot glue
leaves from nature
branch for mobile 10-15 inches long (make sure it is dry)
spray sealant

Tie leaves carefully so you don’t break them. Hang them or lay on old newspapers and spray with sealant. This is to preserve them and prevent cracking and breaking. Leave to dry.

Tie thread close to the ends of the branch, on both side and leave enough to hang it.

Tie your pinecones or pine cone gnomes and leaves on a branch. There are no easy steps to tell how to balance your mobile, as it depends on length of your branch, pinecone size etc. You’ll have to play until you find right balance.

Hang you natural autumn mobile and enjoy this little piece of nature in your home.
