Today I will be sharing a DIY Monogrammed Wall Art Tutorial.

This was originally posted at The Cards We Drew for Abbey as she was or still is on maternity leave!  CLICK HERE for the original post.

The supplies you will need are:

• Frame – a size that fits in your open wall space
• Letters – any style and size, but sized to fit within the frame
• Paint
• Brushes

As with any monogram, you will want the middle letter to be larger.

You’ll notice that I am featuring the finished letters as they are such a contrast to the background in my photos than are the non-painted wood ones.

To paint the letters, I chose an espresso color.

Once all letters were painted, I moved on to painting the frame.

Notice that I didn’t paint every nook and cranny.  I wanted this particular look.  You may choose to leave the frame in its original color or paint it a complete (meaning in all the nooks and crannies) solid color.  It’s up to you!

After both the frame and the letters are dry…it’s time to hang!  As you can tell…I left the wall inside the frame unpainted.

However, there are so many options for your design.  You could paint it a different solid color, cover the inside wall in wallpaper or paint a pattern. It depends on your style and the room design.

Obviously you will want to hang the frame and when you do the same with the letters, center them.  Notice that you may need to get creative with the letters such as I did below.

And there you have it…the finished product!!

I hope that I inspired you to create your own.  Good luck! And let me know how your project turns out by leaving comments below.
