DIY: Twine Letters

by Kristin

I love a good ole country, rustic, DIY look. There is something about it that is simple. Something that is refreshing. I have to admit that sometimes that thought of having so many DIY projects going on at once, is overwhelming. In fact, I have tried to downsize my project collection BIG time and it is working! One of the projects I have always wanted to do was wrap the first letter of our last name "S" in jute/twine. I had some jute left over from who knows what and I even had the letter! Not sure what I planned on doing with the letter, but it gave me the perfect opportunity to try this DIY project.

It is SO simple (only 3 things needed) and you too, can do this in an afternoon!

Supplies Needed:
Jute or twine
Letter to wrap
Hot glue and hot glue gun
