Cute Letters

I thought it would be kind of fun to decorate letters for my roommate and I to hang on the outside of our bedroom doors. (She thinks it's a little too sorority house - I was in a sorority by the way.) So in line with my yarn and felt theme, I made these.

Basically, I just wrapped khaki/ivory colored yarn in whatever direction would work until the MDF craft store letters were colored. I used Tacky Glue to attach the yarn to the letters. Then I made some felt flowers (see the yarn wreath tutorial). After trying the Tacky Glue to attach the flowers, I ended up using hot glue. The yarn and felt absorbed too much of the liquid glue.

I haven't hung them up yet, but the plan is to staple (gun) a loop of sheer brown ribbon to the back. I'm going to use the nickel colored 3M hooks to hang the letters on the doors.

I actually think her "M" is cuter than my "K", but oh well... Hopefully I will remember to post pictures of them on the doors soon.
