When we were creating Ellie’s nursery we wanted to create a girly, but still somewhat neutral environment. Adding this floral E initial in an elegant Ikea frame was an easy addition!
Unfortunately, at the time I didn’t take pictures of creating it but I’ll try to give you my best walk through in steps!
What you’ll need
- Hot glue gun and glue
- Piece of cardboard
- Scissors
- Pencil
- Ikea UNG DRILL frame
- Fake flowers (I got mine from Michaels)
First, I outlined in pencil the letter E. I did this by freehand and didn’t worry about it being perfect because the flowers would hide the imperfections. Then I cut the letter out.
Your flowers will likely come on stems so be sure to remove those in order to create a flat base to apply the glue to your flower. Then I simply glued the flowers onto the letter E. I didn’t really arrange the flowers where I wanted them prior to gluing them and this caused no issues during the process.
Once it dried, I took everything out of the Ikea frame aside from the glass. Then I used the hot glue gun again to put a generous amount on the back of the letter and stuck it onto the front of the glass frame.
That’s it! I’m sure you could create a ton of different looks with this method and I would love to hear if any of you have created anything similar!
Love, Tilly and Goo
