Billhime, of course! I got this wooden letter on sale cheap at Babies R Us, while shopping for a baby shower gift. It was bright white and I painted it cream and aged it a bit. It looked kind of lonely and blah just propped up on the shelf, so I took a frame that I wasn't using, and painted it to match the letter. I wanted to use some fabric in the frame for the backround to the B, but I didn't have any I was crazy about. I ended up cutting up a burlap peanut bag, wrapped it right around the glass and hot glued it, hung the letter by a ribbon and...wha-lah! I'm glad I used the burlap...it adds some texture and keeps it neutral so I can move it from room to room, I could change the ribbon too if I want to match a different room or change it with the seasons. It's a fun way to dress up a simple letter!
