Monagramed Book Letter

-
Home decor doesn't have to cost much. There are many DIY projects that you can do to make your home look great! I wanted to make a letter using the initial of our last name "K"!

Materials needed for project:
- Letters (you can find these at hobby stores)
- Old Song Book.
- Hot Glue Gun
- Hot Glue
- Scissors

1. Like every good craft project, gather all of your materials. 

2. Begin by tearing out pages of an old song book. 


3. After your pages are torn out of the book, use your scissors to cut the margins and page numbers off the paper. You mainly want just words or music notes showing.

4. Roll your paper. You can either roll them tight or loose, depending on 

your preference. Try to roll them approx. the same size. -I know, easier said than done!


5. As you finish rolling your paper strip, grab your hot glue gun and put a small amount of glue onto the remaining edge of your paper strip. 

6. Continue rolling your strip in order to adhere the glue strip onto the paper. 

7. Lay your paper roll on the letter and either estimate where to cut it or use a pencil to mark where to cut it. (The letter 'K' has an angle so it was a little difficult to get the rolls cut perfect.)


8. Hot Glue your paper roll onto your letter.

9. Continue until your letter is covered entirely with paper rolls. 


10. Enjoy your Book Letter and have fun deciding where to stand it. 

I am still trying to decide if I want to put my letter on my bookcase, or place it on the mantle....
