So Monday I went to Roberts (Craft Store) looking for a gift and checking out their home decor clearance, when I happened to spy some large alphabet letters with a display. I have been thinking of doing something with the boys names, since I always see cute things on Tiana's blog, but had never really gotten on board with monograms. Well- I saw these letters and got thinking of a cute thing that my sister-in-law Stacy did at her last family reunion, and went on a little splurge to buy some stuff and try to make something nice out of it. I was anxious to try my skills, so I started working on it yesterday before work and by this afternoon... voila! they are both finished and hanging on the walls.
Check it out-
Henry did not want to stand next to his name, so he made this half smile for me.
Not too bad for a days work. Gavin is pretty excited to be able to wake up every morning and spell his and Henry's name. It's all about the little things, right?
