Make your mobiles look as if they are suspended in mid-air by using clear nylon thread. This really helps to stop anything detracting from the overall appearance of the work you are hanging (which ribbon , coloured wool and twine can sometimes do). It is possible to buy this clear nylon thread from art suppliers/display specialists but my advice would be to visit your local fishing shop and buy their clear nylon fishing line. It comes in different strengths (which is useful if you know you have a heavy object to suspend rather than a tissue box for instance) and most importantly is often a lot cheaper too! I have successfully used this to suspend a 6ft long 3D killer whale and a 3D chinese dragon which looked really effective. It's one of my 'must haves' now when putting up displays and I'm sure you'll find it indispensible too.
