Making this now!! Thanks so much for the tut and the idea!!
Thanks for the thrifty idea! I am making this now! I had to tell my husband that I have taken on the pintrest 52 weeks challenge. I pinned this and the one thing he was worried about was the financial cash flow and making projects since we just moved! Thank goodness, we have tons of card board boxes in the garage, I have hot glue, and will be making an H and a B! Heather and Bert c= Thanks for the easy step by step instructions!
I like your craft blog. You have the same skill level without the intimidation of many of the craft blogs. Important to me, because I am not very crafty.
Hope to meet you at Blissdom.
Angie, I love this letter idea. I’ve been looking for a way to complete a monogram and I think this is it! Thanks for the tutorial!
Hugs,
Sherry
Thank you for the idea and I am going to make one tomorrow and I pinned it. Your site is wonderful
I love this, especially because its so inexpensive.
I love this! It would be a perfect gift for my sister, the piano player.

Oh I love this!!! I am just now finding it from Totally Green Contest and must do this for our Christmas deco this year– I wish the letter J sat well like the H does.. very cute!!! YAY!
Angie, just found you by accident and I have to say I love this idea! The letters covered in music sheet pieces really makes an attractive decor and the country flare the distress ink adds is really great. Thank you for sharing.
I am only mildly crafty, so I don’t know much about use ink to create a distressed look. Any tips like what type of ink to use and how to apply it? I’m opening a music studio next month and am creating some crafty items as rewards for a crowdfunding campaign to purchase our new baby grand piano! I love this monogram!
Tim Holtz makes a line of distressed ink that is perfect for this job. You can either rub the letter on the ink pad or rub your finger on the ink pad and rub it along the sides of the letter.
