I have this bad tendency to see something on Pinterest, pin it, and then eventually make it – but change it entirely so it looks nothing like the pin I originally started with! This project would be another example of that!
I started with this architectrual letters idea from Blick’s website. Then I just wasn’t sure if I could do all that, so I started improvising.

I really wish this picture did the project more justice! The total project is just over a foot tall and it’s absolutely GORGEOUS! I will try to get more pictures taken on our wedding day, so hopefully you can really see the true beauty in it. 🙂
My sister-in-law is getting married three weeks after us, and she’s already asked to use this for her wedding as well. YEA! Extra use for all those hours I put into this.
Plus it will double as a house decoration after the wedding, so it wasn’t like a one and done type of project. I’ll get to enjoy this for YEARS to come!
The big day is almost here!
