C-O-N-N-O-R

I have always like the letters you can get to spell out kids' names....I, however, do not like the hefty price that can come with some of the cute pre-made letters. Spending more than a few dollars per letter was not something I was comfortable doing, especially since none of my kids' names are super short. Some pre-made letters on Etsy and Ebay are in abundance of $10.00 or more per letter...holy expensive. (I don't mean to criticize anyone that has purchased these letters...they are lovely and definitely pull together kids' rooms, I just couldn't justify it for myself)

I happened to find these white letters at Hobby Lobby for a regular price of $2.99, but as luck would have it, they were 50% off, so I picked them up for Connor's room. I love that it cost me less than $10.00 to buy all of the letters for his name, and only a few dollars more to buy the materials to personalize his name to match his room.
(I also like that since I made these letters, whenever we decide to do something else with his room, I can take these letters apart and redo them...I would never want to do that with letters I had purchases pre-made)



I wish I would have taken individual pictures of each letter to show the accents and detail, but you can take my word...they are super cute!


(Just a picture of a different wall in his room. I found that cute star lamp at a resale shop for $3.00....it goes perfectly in his room)


At the time I bought these letters, I didn't get the ones for the girls' room, b/c I didn't know how they would turn out. I am really pleased with how they look, so I went back and bought the letters for Avery and Alivia's names. I haven't done anything with them yet, b/c I keep hoping we'll be able to move sometime soon, and I don't know what their room(s) will look like at that point..if we'll re-decorate or whatnot...so until then, I'll just wait.
