FRAMED NAME: BY THE LETTER

Hello All!  Thanks for stopping by!  I'm sorry to say that even though our camping trip was a blast, we were completely wiped out last week.  I didn't even get enough done to share anything with you!  But not to worry, this week has been busy getting more projects around the house completed!! 

Sooo...today I am sharing something I worked on last year I haven't shared with you yet!  Me?  holding back projects?  Nah..... ;) 

I wanted to put The Boo's name in her big girl ladybug room we redid last summer.  It need to be cheery and bright to match her room.  

I purchased wood cut letters for her name and then carried them around in my purse for what seemed like forever!! Every time I would shop for frames I would pull out another letter to make sure they were the right size for the letter.  Crazy!
I painted all the letters white, painted the frames colors of her room and used the leftover pillow fabric as backgrounds in the frames.
I just used clear liquid nails to add the wood letters to the glass on the frames.  I kept the glass on instead of gluing to the fabric, because I thought it would make it easier to clean.  
Put them all up on an IKEA ledge and there you go!  Simple and fun!  
Hope your week is going great!!  Thanks for visiting!

  7. This is beautiful, such a great take on wood letters. I like the idea of keeping the glass on, over the years I bet the fabric would get a little yucky. Thank you for sharing!
