Got to love crafts!

My sister Jenny has been wanting to decorate my niece Abigail's room since she was born and just didn't know where to start. The walls are painted a lilac purple. I had been wanting to do this project with Jenny for a while now and since I now have time on my side, I figured why not. Its really easy and I actually got the idea from my good friend Amy!

Go to your local craft store and pick out wooden letters that spell out what you want to say. We chose Abigail. Pick up some modge podge and decorative paper in patterns you like or that match.

The first step and a VERY important one...Trace the letters on the back side of the paper you are going to use so when you flip it over the patterned side is reflective of the letter.

Once you trace and cut out all your letters you are ready to apply the modge podge. With a sponge brush or small paint brush apply a thin layer of modge podge to the wood letter and apply paper to the wooden letters making sure they are aligned correctly. Repeat until all letters are adhered. Let dry for 15 minutes or longer.

Once letters are dry apply another layer of modge podge to the top of the letters to give them a sheen. let dry another 15 minutes or longer and there you have it! Add a ribbon or angle on a shelf and you have an inexpensive, fun way to decorate any room!
