MAKING MOBILES: CREATE BEAUTIFUL POLOSH PAJAKI FEOM NATURAL MATERIALS, by Karolina Merska, is laden with instruction, lists of materials, and 200 beautiful images. These richly decorated chandeliers are colorful mobiles. 

I don’t believe I have ever seen so many materials and hues used to create anything!  I may just have to try my hand at at one or two or three.
