Start by painting your letters. I used a mix of patterns, but simple enough that my perfectionist tendencies wouldn’t be overwhelmed. The striped “L” was definitely the most difficult in terms of precision – painting the white first, then pink using tape, and then the darkest color red using tape. It literally pains me to show you this close-up, but in real life on the door no one is paying this close attention.
The “O” I kept simple by painting red, and then used the decorative heart shape with a simple stitching “trim” painted on. The heart was attached with the hot glue gun.
The “E” was painted red, and then got an extra layer of glitter for pizzazz.
