personalize a monogram

Here is another one of the little home dec projects I've done recently.



Super simple. Printed a few pictures of us. Punched a hole in each picture and tied each picture to the "H" (for Higgins) with a piece of ribbon. Done. Sits on our entry table inside the front door.



You can find these large letters just about anywhere these days, including the Ross/TJMaxx/Marshalls type of stores. I got this one at Razmataz (one of my favorite stores) here in the Phoenix area. It's a chain and there are several locations around the valley. (I don't know if they have locations elsewhere, and I don't believe they have a website yet.) Since most of you don't live in AZ, you might want to try doing a search online or something.

I live in Utah, and just got a couple of these for a different project at Keeping Memories Alive in Spanish Fork, and I'm pretty sure they have them at Roberts in Provo, too.

I am going to have to go to Roberts! This is too cute and well, I am always looking for creative ways to display our photos since we are pro-photographers!

Hi Becky,
What's the height of your letter? Did you paint it or did it come distressed like that? Love the idea!!

Becky,
That is so neat! I'm going to try it, although I might have a hard time finding a "J" to stand up like your "H"!

THAT is SOOOOOOOOOOO cute! My complaint is my initials are jc.
both round bottomed letters. they don't stand alone.

I guess I'll just have to hang mine up. Thanks for such a super cute idea!

AND I got my new sketches book, looked through the whole thing. I love the fact there is a space on each page where I can put my post it flags and not cover the layout. I only post-it'ed about 85%! Great ideas, I LOVE IT!

Becky, just wanted to let you know that I saw your new Sketches book offered for sale on half.com for $100! Someone's obviously a fan! I bet it's worth every penny. My birthday's next week, so I'm hoping with fingers crossed!!!

Hi Becky, I just wanted to compliment you on such great work & success! I have been a fan of yours for years.
I have a question that I thought you'd be perfect to answer: Can you tell me how you store your digital photos when your computer gets too full? I'm running into 'a pickle' with space on my laptop and wondered if you have any suggestions. I apologize if you have answered this already...but would love your insight!
Thanks & keep up the wonderful work!
