My love for paper flowers has been going strong for a few years. That love combined with ASTROBRIGHTS bright and brilliant colors! I am so excited to share my latest paper flower creation. Mobiles are more than just decoration and stimulation for a baby room. A mobile can work great as party decoration, over a dining table or for a special event. This colorful paper flower mobile is perfect mobile for year-round entertaining with beautiful bright paper flowers. I can’t wait to hang at my first spring dinner party!
