This was an easy project I ended up doing last fall for our front door.
I found this large embroidery hoop at a thrift store for $1.
Next, using a Word Doc. stencil (much like I did in THIS project), I traced our monogram on a piece of burlap . . .
. . . then painted it with black fabric paint.
And, finally, simply put the burlap in the hoop.
So easy, y'all!
Pin It Now!
Very cute idea! I think our front door needs this.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I love it. So simple but elegant :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful simplicity. Love this project.
ReplyDeleteI love the simplicity of this! Perfect :) It gets a pin on pinterst ;)
ReplyDeleteI really love what you did, as you said, so easy too! New gfc follower, saw you on linky party, Karima :) www.karimascrafts.com

LOVE this! I think I'll run upstairs and make one of these now :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea and it looks really cool on your door! Is your door blue or is that a reflection?
ReplyDeleteThanks! There is a bit of reflection . . . but it's a black door.
ReplyDeleteThat looks great! I love monograms!
ReplyDeleteWow, that is so creative and you can't beat the price. Great idea! I am a new follower and I wanted to invite you to share this in a blog link up I am co-hosting.

So simple and cute! I'd love for you to link this up at my Fall Craft Challenge this week; the theme is door decor and this is such a fun, original variation on a typical wreath!

ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely lovely! Thanks for the idea and for the tutorial!
ReplyDeleteI'm your newest follower. :)
I can't seem to figure out how you hung it on the door. Please share. :)
ReplyDeleteThere should be enough space on the back of your hoop to simply hang it on a nail . . . or possibly a "command" hook on your door? I used a nail.
ReplyDeleteI hope this helps! :)
I love how simple and clean this is! Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove this. Can't wait to make one for our front door. Thanks so much for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea (and simple...the only kind I can manage!) I just pinned it. Thanks for the inspiration!!! :)
ReplyDeleteHello! I love your patterns, I did a test run of this Rarity (to put on a fleece hat) but I ran into some trouble. It seemed as if the pattern shifted (the body outline) and the mane/tail had issues. I think it was something that was wrong with my fabric/stabilizer. Do you have any tips for embroidering on fleece?
ReplyDeleteReally impressive. I'm always inspired embroidered monogram but feel that I may lack the patience to apply myself properly. I love your colour combinations.
