DIY monogram, rock star style

How to DIY a perfectly rock star-ish monogram for a party or room decor!

Need to add a bit of rock star to a room (or a party)??? This disco ball filled monogram is the perfect addition!Do you guys remember when Jordan filled a cardboard letter “K” with fake flowers for Keadryn’s garden party? Well, I loved that so much that I’ve been wanting to do a little spin on that fill-a-monogram idea  ever for Josie’s rock star party (full details on that to come).

Need to add a bit of rock star to a room (or a party)??? This disco ball filled monogram is just the thing!And what is more fun than a J filled with disco balls? Not much.

Make a monogram for wall decorTo start, I bought the biggest cardboard “J” I could find and cut around the front panel to remove it. Then I spray painted the J silver.

How to DIY a perfectly rock star-ish monogram for a party or room decor!My on site engineers (aka- my dad and brother) were the brains behind the next part of this process- they punched small holes in the “J” and then weaved fishing line up through the punched holes, through the disco ball top openings, and back down again (almost like sewing a sequin to fabric, but with disco balls and a giant cardboard letter). I never would’ve thought to do it that way, and it turned out great.

Need to add a bit of rock star to a room (or a party)??? This disco ball filled monogram is the answer!Once all of the mini disco balls are secure, your rock star monogram is finished! Use for a party (or even for room décor!). Love!

how to make a sparkly monogram

One of the trickiest parts of having a girl-boy shared bedroom was trying to keep it non-girly but also adding feminine touches for Piper Jane (since it was her room too, afterall). Mostly, those touches come in the form of sparkles. My personal favorite was the glittered P monogram hanging above her bed. I’m sure you’ve caught […]

create a map covered monogram

My kids have a love affair with European cities. Piper Jane is team Paris and Burke lo-oves London. So a map covered monogram with a twist- London Tube maps- is the perfect addition to the Smooches’ shared room (see my plans for that space here). A sweet friend who is living in London sent me […]

how to make a monogram throw pillow

The only thing I love better than a custom pillow is a custom Letter pillow (I am far and away in love with monograms and type). Perfection, I tell you. Want to make one of these monogram throw pillows too??? First, make a paper letter template (I held my paper up to my computer screen and […]
