Easy Monogram Project

I was trying to think of a gift idea this weekend and wanted to use only materials from my craft stash. I've been trying to avoid buying anything new lately because I feel like I have enough materials on hand. This is all do the Project Overhauling challenge I participated in.
October Overhauling
I had some leftover fabric from my lampshade recover project, and then my project started from there.  I took a frame that I had not used before and covered the cardboard piece included with it with fabric. I took out the glass from the frame because it is not needed.

I glued the fabric onto the cardboard and then placed it inside the frame.  Next I painted a wooden letter that I had gotten on clearance a few weeks ago. I had hoped that I could find a way to make something for a friend with it.  I painted it with leftover paint that I had, and added some flower stickers onto one of the corners.
Then I glued the letter to the fabric background on the frame.  Because I used materials I had already purchased for other projects the only new purchase was the letter, which was on clearance for $2.00.  I hope that my friend will like her gift.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Don't forget to follow me on Pinterest if you would like. The button is on the right hand side of our blog.

Have a great day.
