I am still working on Amane's nursery, but I'd like to introduce some of the things I made before she was born. There are still many projects on my list, but there's just not enough time. I need to organize my day better; that's something I need to work on immediately!
Anyway, I wanted to have my daughter's name on the wall and Anthropologie had these really pretty fabric letters↓. But they were over $10 apiece (can't remember the exact price) , and $50 - $60 for her name on the wall seemed a bit much.
So I decided to create the letters myself! Instead of covering them with fabric, I decided to use scrapbooking papers, an easier and cheaper solution.
I bought the paper mache letters from Joanne for $2.99 each and covered them with papers that had various designs. Also, I used different patterns for the face and the sides of each letter. It was fun to mix and match patterns and colors and I'm pretty happy with how they turned out.
雑誌か何かで見た、子供の名前を壁にディスプレイするアイディア。
大好きなお店アンソロポロジーに布製のが売っていたのですが(写真1番上)、
1つ$10以上、5文字で¥5〜6,000はなんぼ何でも高いっしょ(気持ちが高ぶると北海道弁全開となる私です)
それならばと、誕生前から名前も決めていたし、時間のある妊娠中に自分で作成する事に。
当初は布と綿で段ボール製のアルファベット(市販)をカバーしようと思っていたのですがどうも面倒くさそう。グルーガンがいるみたいだし、布って結構高いし。
という訳で急遽紙に変更。これなら切って折って貼るだけだし簡単。
色柄の組み合わせを考えながら作るのはとても楽しくて、あっと言う間に完成。
出来栄えも満足満足。
まだまだしたい事は山積みの子供部屋、これにて完成!と言える日はいつ来るやら。
