Painting Paper Airplanes

New quarantine craft! I'm making a mobile because I have time, resources, and nothing better to do. So here's sort of my process:

At first, I was just making some paper airplanes, partially because I was listening to a song called Paper Airplanes, and partially because origami! And why not. I had taken a piece of paper and divided it into smaller and smaller pieces. Then I started taking some old homework pages (well what else am I going to do with it?) and made more

  
(don't mind the messy desk)

After that, I thought "what am I going to do with all of this?
Well, I have this mobile I had built in 7th grade, using paper cranes. So I decided why not make another? I had a wooden hoop in my basement, usually used as a hoop for embroidery, and some invisible string.



After a while of stringing airplanes. I was bored and decided to paint some as well. Some I painted the tops a different color from the bases. Some I decorated with different designs. So now I'm just hanging them all up and will update when I complete it.

Finished


It came out pretty well granted the fact that it was a sort of last-minute project, but I'm happy with how it turned out, and it's now hanging from the ceiling in my closet (because I kept running into it when it was sitting in my doorway)
