Tell me what you think!!

Hi girls! This FALL wall hanging has been my project the past 2 weeks.
At first, I had the idea of decoupaging the letters to stand up right on a shelf...
then realized the ones I purchased have funky edges so they DON'T stand! UGH!

So then I came up with the idea of hot glueing them to a ribbon... it came out a bit crooked but I guess I am pretty pleased with how it all came out. What do you think?


I painted each letter then added autumn rub-on stickers used for scrapbooking and some leaf stickers too. The ribbon I used on the back came from Wal-Mart on clearance for $0.75 for the roll! The letters were $2.99 a piece.










I REALLY love how the bow at the bottom came out!! I added a couple prima flowers to the center of it and a brown button; kinds looks like a lil sunflower, eh? Then I hot glued a larger sunflower to the top of it.
I think this will go on my front door. It has a large rectangle window in the center of it, so this would fit perfectly!
I love how all the colors came out on my creation; you know I LOVE fall!
Just still a bit frustrated that I didn't get the letters lined up how I wanted to:(
Have a great day!
(Come back tomorrow to see what I got in the mail from my friend HOLLY!!)
Hugs,
Noelle ♥

Super cute, Noelle!! It will go perfect on your door! Wish I could find letters like that on clearance but I've never seen them go on sale...
Ha-ha! You're as bad as I am about wanting things to be strait but if I'm going to craft I have to live with my lack of ability to do strait! It ain't happening! It looks fine and no one will notice but you.

Hope you are feeling better and that you have a fun day! ♥

What a GREAT idea to put them on a ribbon! Looks great, even if you think that it's not straight!

What a wonderful way to welcome fall! Your decoration turned out very well. Lot's of creativity went into it. It's so much more meaningful when you make your own decorations. Have a nice weekend! Twyla
