Ok, Tawni or Mike, if you're checking out my blog...scroll down past this post!
I bought this frame at the Thrift Store for about $2. I started off cutting lt. pink, dk. pink and yellow letters all 1 1/2" and in the same font. I layed them out on the frame and just wasn't feeling it. So I put it aside and worked on something else...
I have a container that I keep random shapes and letters that I messed up the size or the color wasn't right, etc. So for some reason, I grabbed my container and started pulling other font, colors and size letters and started replacing some of the others with these. Then I remember that I had some birds from a swap that I hosted awhile back....and the rest is history :)
I LOVE how this turned out! It just might be the cutest thing I have ever made. I hope my cousins like it as much as I do.
Ok, seriously don't know how to keep the photo the right direction.... I saved it after I flipped it, but still didn't come out right. So once again, tilt your head to the right and you'll get a better look at it.
It did turn out beautifully Dorlene! I tried to picture it from your description, but this is even better than it was in my head:)

ReplyDeleteAs I love babies so much, so the gifts for them should also be lovable and the idea of personalized gifts can help a lot while choosing a gift for babies is a very difficult task because they always want something special from you and if its not of their choice then it will become difficult to handle them.

I agree harun. I try to check out the baby registers so I know whatever I'm making will coordinate with their theme. I've been pretty lucky with my handmade gifts as I only do this with family and really close friends. They know and (almost) expect a handmade gift from me. LOL
