Crafty Time! Felt Baby Name

Okay, here come the baby crafts. It was inevitable, you know...

This week I made felt letters spelling out the baby's name for his door. I used to have a very similar one (actually, I still have it in a box somewhere) and I love the continuity of making one for my little guy.


I do wish the felt for the O was a little darker, but these are the blue and aqua shades they had at Michaels. I added the owl because his room has a bird theme and I'll be making an owl mobile very soon (and I'll be sure to post it when it's done).

I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Not professional level by any means, but I like that it looks home made. And it makes me happy when I walk past his door!

  2. I love this!! How did you get the letters to perfect and the same size? Did you use stencils or just do it by hand somehow?

    thanks

    1. Hi Judy. I made stencils by printing the letters out on card stock and cutting them out.
