DIY Flower Initial

Welcome to crafting 101 with Just Jen! I’m no Martha Stewart, but I do enjoy DIYs, especially when they’re this easy.

When we set up the nursery, I knew we’d likely be moving in 3-6 months, so I didn’t want to create something too elaborate. I wanted unique touches that could easily be moved to new digs. This hanging DIY-flower initial is the perfect personal touch to your nursery. Here’s how to do it!

Materials:

• Your choice of faux flowers
• Corrugated cardboard
• Hot glue gun
• Initial stencil (I found mine here)
• Ribbon
• Acrylic paint & paintbrush
• Scissors
• Wood skewer

Instructions:

1. Lay your initial stencil on the corrugated cardboard. Using a wood skewer, trace the outline by puncturing small holes. Cut out your initial with scissors. 
2. Paint your initial the color of your choice – or leave it blank if you prefer.
3. Cut faux flowers from stem so only the bud remains.
4. Using your wood skewer, puncture hole in corrugated cardboard and pop flower bud through.
5. Hot glue the back of the hole and bud.

6. Repeat until entire letter is covered with flowers. Add ribbon to hang.Tah-dah! An easy and pretty DIY that perfect for any nursery, and beyond!
