Nice! I'd love to have my babys name as well. I'll probably just buy some letters though all ready done up.

Ok share your secrets because at Pottery Barn Kids, in plain white even, those are $10 a letter so I'm planning on doing my own as well. On Etsy, the cheapest I could find was $5.00 a letter and they weren't as cute (and Charlotte's name has NINE letters!!! That adds up!) Did you use acrylic and templates? I'm getting ready to head to Michael's soon to buy the unfinished lettering to do mine for Charlotte, but needed to know if acrylic was the way to go. Did you use a sealer as well? So cute!!! You did a great job! Those are better than most of the lettering I've looked at, and believe me, I've looked at a TON lately

You did a great job! I would have guessed they were done by a professional painter.

I got the letters at Michael's but I don't remember the cost. They sell several types of letters. The ones I used are the big white ones. The paint doesn't absorb into the finished letters as well but just be sure and let them dry good. I used acrylic and painter's tape. I used a wet paper towel to fix small things while paint was semi wet. I haven't sealed them yet but I probably will. Thanks for the compliments I love doing creative things.
