Elegant Decortive Letter for Home Decor

4 Materials
I love the large decorative paper mache letters you find at all the big box craft stores. You can do so much them with them. I chose to make mine wit the letter of my last name and glam it up to place on my mantle. This can easily be done for a door sign, coffee table decor, you can even do a full name for a mantel. The ideas are endless!
Start off with a base paper mache letter you get from the big box craft stores. They are about 8 inches tall and are thick enough to stand on their own. They are also very light.
Spray the letter in black, and then cover it with the Rinea foil. Cut off excess foil and distress with sandpaper.
Add in some flowers and swirl bling to make it that little bit of extra elegance. You can easily do this in any color you wish. Make this a fun piece for a wedding centerpiece.
Now you have a beautiful decorative letter to place in your house. These letters come in the full range of alphabets at the stores, and even numbers. Just picture you full last name resting on your fireplace, or even in your Christmas tree!!
Here is the full video tutorial on how to make this beautiful letter.
