DIY Personalized Wooden Letters with Modge Podge and Scrapbook Paper

This may be the easiest DIY craft and this is coming from a non-crafty mama bear.




Supplies:

  • Wooden letters [you can purchase these at any craft store such as Michaels or Hobby Lobby]
  • Scrapbook paper
  • Scrapbook stickers
  • Ribbon and other sewing notions
  • Scissors
  • Modge Podge [matte or shiny]
  • Paint brush


  1. Select a sheet of scrapbook paper that you would like on top of your letter.

  2. Trace the letter on the scrapbook paper and cut out paper.
    1. I placed the letter on top of the scrapbook paper to trace.
    2. If you choose to trace on the back of the paper, be sure to reverse the letter.

  3. Using the paint brush, apply Modge Podge liberally to the wooden letter.

  4. Carefully, apply scrapbook paper to the letter.  Allow to dry.

  5. Paint Modge Podge over the scrapbooked letter.

  6. After the scrapbooked letter has dried, attach various scrapbook stickers and ribbons/rick-rack to the letter.

  7. In the Letter E below, I hot-glued a jeweled bracket to the letter for extra bling.

  8. "The Chronicles of Ellie Bellie Bear" is a delightful children's book series that follows the adventures of Ellie Bellie Bear and her friends.
