Is this yet another rubber origami bird mobile? Why yes, yes it is.

A mobile made up of the classic New York City fixture (nuisance), pigeons. The mobile is made up of five (or six haven’t decided yet) birds. The birds come in three fruit flavors: red, yellow, and blue.

In the past, I’ve had a little success with origami and I’ve had a little success with mobiles, why not put them together?

After a little “you got your chocolate in my peanut butter, you got your peanut butter in my chocolate” design work, I came up with the Rubber Origami Mobile. Now for a limited time in red.

My sister asked me to make 60 rubber origami birds for her wedding. She used them as place settings. I’ve never made more than 4 of anything before, so I figured I’d give mass production a shot.

Aside from breathing Plasti Dip fumes for two weeks, it went pretty well.

Is this a new contender for the girliest thing I’ve ever made? Thanks Kels for the pic.
