I haven't done a DIY like this in a while so it was twice as fun. I saw this DIY by Mandi on A Beautiful Mess and decided on making something similar but with a different touch. Instead of a random compliation of letters I decided on a play of words with Russ and my name.
You will need:
Spray Adhesive
White paper
Old magazines
Scissors
A photocopier
Here are the steps I followed:
One. Cut letters out of magazines, I used old Instyle and Elle's, sind they have nice big lettering. Choose large headings that you can cut up and use. It's up to you if you would like to use different fonts or stick with similar looking letters.
Two. Take the white paper and choose which letters you want to use. Put the letters on them. You can arrange them however you want. Be creative!
Three. Use the spray adhesive to glue the letters onto the white paper. Photocopy them. I decided to keep the same size that I started with. But of course you can blow it up or make it smaller. I want to buy an all black frame and hang this little gem on our gallery wall.
I love this idea! Such a fun thing to do - I definitely need to get back into doing stuff like this, been so lazy recently :) I can see this hanging nicely.
