I Heart Monograms!

I love monograms....on everything: baby bloomers, bags, bow holders, bows, onesies, dresses and WALLS!


I painted a script monogram on my best friend Jennie's daughter's nursery wall and her mother-in-law had the great idea to "frame" it with an old oval frame. My friend Dana saw Jennie's nursery and wanted to do something similar in her daughter's nursery, but we had to be creative since she doesn't live just down the street like Jennie does. So I found some LARGE carbon paper and was able to paint little Claire's monogram on the paper and then give it to Dana. She then traced the monogram onto the wall and then painted it and framed it. And I think it looks great! If you're interested in doing something like this on your walls, please let me know! I can do many different fonts and sizes and this option is cheap...only $10-$15 depending on the size and complexity!

And finally...at long last...my daughter Annie's monogram. LOTS of colors! A 3-set monogram like this (side canvases are 11" x 14" and center canvas is 16" x 20") would be $100 and can be done in a variety or colors and fonts.
