Custom Wood Wall Monograms for Less

Whether placed on a bag, a pillow, or even a wall, a monogram adds a flourish that’s undeniable. Anne from Creative Life Blog wanted to bring this flourish to her bar area and her daughter’s nursery, just not at $139 a piece. She found a more affordable option in ordering custom unfinished wood monograms and then simply spray painting them the desired color. She says, “Not only was I able to make two monograms for less than the price of one, but mine is larger!!!”
