Can I change the color on a mobile?
Yes, absolutely! The paint I use on my modern mobiles comes in 251+ colors. Yep, you read that correctly!
Since I custom make all my orders, you can choose any color for any design. If I have the color in stock, there's no extra charge. If I do not, there's a small additional cost (usually around $5 per color). Message me for more details. -
Great question! My mobiles are made from metal and paint - neither of which are fun to digest.
In other words, they are not intended to be hung anywhere that baby can access them with anything other than their eyes. Please keep mobiles hung safely out of hand, mouth, and body reach. -
Yes! All my painted mobiles are painted with Belton Molotow Premium paints. Originally developed for graffiti artists, these paints are extremely durable and they hold up well under most weather conditions and keep their vibrancy.
Plus, because the arms of my mobiles are made with stainless steel wire, they are rust resistant, too.
If you have questions about your specific environment or the location you're considering hanging a mobile outdoors, please feel free to message me and we can discuss. -
