First off let me just say that i am absolutely Addicted to Pinterest, as I’m sure most of you are! I am so addicted that my husband cringes when i say, “guess where i found this recipe or craft”…he just shakes his head and i very excitedly yell…PINTEREST!!!
During one of my very early pinnings I came across this Monogrammed Family Sign and thought it was beautiful & that I wanted to do something like that for my house.
Well time came and went and next thing i know it is Christmas time and I think, what a perfect gift for my sister-in-law who is getting married this summer! (I was very excited!!)
So I went shopping to find things that resembled her wedding colors (Damask Black & White with an accent Dark Purple) and this is what i came up with…
I got the frame & letters at AC Moore, the fabric from Joann Fabrics and i went to town and created my take on the Pinterest monogram sign. I painted the letters dark purple and i used fabric instead of tiles for the background, gluing it to the back of the frame, and i used fabric for the flower, using buttons in the center to hold the flower together.
I Love the way it came out and my sister-in-law got teary eyed when she opened her Christmas present. I hope you enjoy it as well!
With Love,
That came out so cute Jess – great gift for your SIL.
SO cute! Also – my wedding was black and white Damask with dark purple. Good choice.
(I still have a ton of damask stuff in my garage, if she is interested.)
