Your whole life you grow up on one side of the alphabet. I am still adjusting from living on the “S” side of the alphabet, to the “B” side now. It’s quite a change. When I’m listed alphabetically, I get lost every time. I still go to the end of the alphabet, before I remember I’m a B now. Gosh the things you have to get used to! While the S was a prettier letter by far (not to mention it stands for Sparkle), I do love my new B. There are plenty of less-fortunate letters out there. Not mentioning any names…but I think you know who you are.
It comes in handy that a B looks nice hanging on a door for my next project. This could not have been any easier, so I thought I’d share. Most of what you will need, you probably have at home, otherwise you can pick it all up at Michael’s (including the letter):
Wooden/Tagboard Letter
One piece of 12X12 designed paper
Modge Podge and applier
Flowers of your choice
Buttons
Razor
Glue gun
Ribbon of your choiceI started by adhering the paper to the B, then removed excess paper with the razor. Then I found some flower papers that would look best, and used a glue gun to adhere them to the bottom. I used buttons as centers, but you could use anything you have around the house. Then I just tied a piece of pink ribbon through the top hole (if your letter isn’t fortunate enough for a hole, just use the glue gun to adhere ribbon to the back of your letter). Voila! You’re done!Hang your letter on your front door or anywhere of your choosing! These would make cute gifts too for those people that have everything (including a fun last name initial!).
