Originally I was going to put one on Sophies door - and another above her crib, but once making the blue one, I thought it was a little too grown and sexy, so it made its way to our master bedroom door. Hello sexy new blue ombre monogram letter. Encase any of you lovelies want to make these too - here is what you need. All items were purchased at Michaels.
Yarn - smaller thickness size. I went with three colors each.
Wooden Monogram Letter - Michaels has diff sizes and thicknesses. I went with a larger thinner size.
Super Clue/Crazy Glue - I used a clear one. You could probably use a glue gun too. This was to hold the embellishment's. If you aren't adding any décor, you don't really need glue.
Embellishment's - I went with different ombre colored flowers.
Velcro - To adhere to the surface you are putting them on (wall/door)
They are honestly pretty easy. At first I was like how am I going to make sure there is no wood exposed with all these curves and bumps - but the good thing about using a thin yarn is you can layer and layer and wrap and wrap. Have fun with it, and if it doesn't work - just unwrap it a bit. Its only yarn!
I also didn't use any glue to hold the thread - as I wrapped it pretty tight, and tucked in the lose ends - but feel free to use glue to hold it down.
So aside from being a greedy mom, and hogging the blue one for our room - I also made a more babygirl vibe monogram letter for Sophies door. Again, I kept the ombre like feel, and made use of Martha Stewarts lovely embellishment flowers. These things are fairly light, so you really don't need much Velcro to hold them up.
Hope these have inspired you to do some crafts. #momlife.
