Origami Paper Mobiles

Looking for unique reception decor? These origami paper mobiles are perfect for couples who love to travel, as they are handmade from vintage maps dating from the 1930′s (and earlier). We spotted these via Elizabeth St + we read one of these cutest things ever: these are handmade by the owner’s 11-year-old son, and he asked her to sell them for him on Etsy. She mentions how he works so hard on these mobiles and “furrows his brow in concentration”. How sweet! He does such a beautiful job! Take a peek…

Get yours (+ let’s make this kid’s day!) at Elizabeth St.

Wow! Thank you so much! You really made Joel’s day. (And mine, of course, because I am the pathetically proud mother of said 11 year old.)
