A is for...

Adorable!! :)



I love decorating a nursery and I had fun making a little something for Avrie's room this week. All you need is a big paper mache letter, obviously I chose A for Avrie. I got mine at Joanns Craft store a few weeks ago.

Then you need these items to help you make a BUNCH of fabric yo-y0s



Add a little hot glue once all your yo-yos are done and this is the finished product:






Here is the final product! I was so happy with how it turned out, it really adds a bright pop of color that is perfect for my babies sweet room. If I can convince my husband to hang up a few things tonight I'll post pics of the whole room tomorrow :)

    I am in the middle of a massive yo-yo project. I love the monogram that you made, but I don't have any spare yo-yo energy right now. Here is a link if you are interested: http://greetingsfromtheasylum.blogspot.com/2011/04/yo-yo-many.html
