Wooden monogram letters for your nursery are super popular right now, but can be expensive too. Customized letters with cute patterns to hang on your nursery wall or display in their room can cost up to $15 a letter! It is very easy to do these yourself for just over $2 a letter.
At craft stores, you can buy pre-cut wood letters for about $2 a letter. I got mine at Joanne’s, and they were already pre-painted white which is what I wanted. You can get an unfinished version as well and paint it yourself if you want the sides and back to be another color.
I picked out scrapbook paper to match the theme and colors of Lily’s nursery. I could do 2 letters on each sheet so I only needed 2 sheets for Lily’s name.
I turned the letter over, and traced the shape on the wrong side of the scrapbook paper. I cut out the shape, and used Mod Podge to secure it to my letters. Never used Mod Podge? Just use a sponge paint brush to brush the Mod Podge over the letter as a “glue”. Put the paper on top, making sure to line up the edges. Paint another layer over the top of the paper to finish and seal. That’s it! You’re done!
In less than 1/2 an hour you can have your own personalized monogram wood letters for your child’s room or nursery.
Most people hang these over their child’s bed or crib, but I chose to display mine on Lily’s bookshelf.
