Wall Monogram...Fail

As any good southern girl does, I love monograms. I don't have many on my clothes but I do have some towels and the like that are monogrammed. I think I will be monogramming more stuff in the future, I think it makes for great decor. Anyway, I found a super cheap frame at a garage sale and I decided that I should make a wall monogram.

I bought paint, the letters H and M, and a fleur-de-lis. I am also obsessed with fleur-de-lis, I have them all over my house. Anyway.


I painted all of my things and then realized I didn't really have a plan for hanging the letters inside the frame. I opted to add a foam board back and I covered it in light tan fabric.

This fabric was a bit much.

I used hot glue to get everything attached (that took forever). So I decided to hang it in my office.

Cute but I think it is going to have to go
It isn't that often that I get to the end of a project and realize that I have no idea what to do with the finished item. I may have forgotten to plan for a way to attach this to the wall. I tried just resting it on nails and it kept falling off. So for now I have no idea what I am going to do with this. So silly. I also don't know if I love how it looks so it might get recycled soon.
