Origami is a technique that is becoming more democratic every day. This ancestral Japanese art makes it possible to make several decorative objects, and in particular hanging mobiles. In this article, I will describe the three reasons to opt for a handmade origami mobile for the room of your babies and your children.
1. Light and poetic, these unique creations will bring softness to your interior
Handmade origami mobiles are very often made with light and noble materials : copper or natural wood circles, fine wire or cord, wooden beads, wool pompoms, but above all ... origami paper (which can be made in France or Japan, country of origin of this ancestral technique).
The shapes created and obtained by folding paper give an effect of lightness to the mobile . Many people find a very poetic side to it, with all these shapes of different sizes, different textures and different colors that come to life when a little breeze blows.
In addition, origami mobiles, which are often natural and refined, will avoid the use of technologies that can be considered visual or sound nuisances for the child : LEDs, lights, music boxes or movement mechanisms installed on certain baby mobiles.
Indeed, nothing more natural than a mobile made from pretty sheets of paper that will last several decades and will never break down !
2. Custom-made, with animals, geometric shapes or around a theme, they will adapt to all your desires
The advantage of artisanal creations is that they can be made and personalized according to your tastes and expectations . Unlike more "industrial" and mass-produced mobiles, custom-made baby mobiles can meet all your desires in terms of shape, size or color.
Origami can be declined in hundreds of folds and shapes according to your themes: marine environment, savannah, space and planets, forest...
There are as many folds as you want, and your custom-made mobile can fit perfectly into the bedroom of your "mini darling " .
3. Handmade in France, the choice of these mobiles helps encourage local craftsmanship and the short circuit
Here again, by choosing a baby mobile designed and made in France , you are encouraging and supporting French and local craftsmanship .
The current context proves to us that it is important today to favor the short circuit and to consume where we know how the products were made. The craftsmen are keen to use raw materials that are also local and of high quality, in order to manufacture creations that will last over time.
We often imagine that craftsmanship rhymes with expensive, but not necessarily! You can find your mobile at all prices.
By choosing a handmade mobile, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that it was made for you and you alone and that there will never be two identical ones in the world!
