This was great inspiration! I made one myself for our modern nursery. I handpicked large (3″) wood shapes from the open stock bins for a celestial look (stars, suns, moons, and comet swirls) and bought paints that match the starburst rug in our baby’s room (pale blue, grass green, and brick red). A couple tips that helped me: I had my husband drill the holes using the smallest drill bit we have, which resulted in clean edges; I bought and painted a few extra “just in case” pieces, which was helpful because we lost a few in the drilling process; I had to knot the jewelry thread several times under each wood piece so it wouldn’t slip through the hole; I wrapped the hoop with ribbon before stringing anything to it; and I used regular tacky fabric glue since I don’t have a hot glue gun and it worked fine. It only took about $10 and one afternoon and the result is so perfect — everyone compliments me on it before they even know it was a DIY project. Thanks for this how-to!

Hmmmm. I commented earlier but it’s not here. Love the colors, and especially the numbers on the front door.

Great job. Especially the brick. I know you loved that part the most! Also, tell everyone about the bat.
