miscellaneous monday: the monogram edition.

I’m a sucker for a good monogram. I love it in jewelry, the home, and photo props. I may even one day like the whole monogrammed towels look (that’s pushing it, though).

Here are some of my favorite web finds:

1. Frame, wire, pretty letter, clothespin: presto!
   
   found here.
2. helloooo cool old chair. come to, mama.
   
   found here.
3.  Map monograms – perfect to do with the cheap-o JoAnn cardboard letters.
   
   found here.
4. Bold and beautiful. Oh, and totally DIY-able.
   
   found here.
5. Collage + monograms = love.
   
   found here.
6. Another great use of the cardboard letters: yarn-wrapped!
   
   found here.
7. Urban seems to ALWAYS have some great letters. Anthropologie, too.
   
   found here.
   
   found here.
8. An adorable idea for a little boy’s room. My brother use to have hundreds of micro machines! What a clever use.
   
   found here.
9. I’m definitely thinking of doing some hoop art in our dining room. But I don’t know what I love more in this photo: the simple monogram or the aqua owl!
   
   found here.
10. One of my absolute favorite etsy shop is Mon Cadeau. Simple monogrammed lovelies. I liked her work so much that I got all my bridesmaids little initialed necklaces like this one:
    
    
    I’d like to think all the girls liked them. They’re simple but pretty. And the shop owner gave me a great discount for ordering four necklaces! I was so envious of my sister’s cute little “L” that a few months after the wedding I ordered one for me. And I recently ordered this necklace from her, too:
    
    Only an M hearts T, of course. :) Troy actually told me to get it. I think he just wants everyone to know I’m his girl. What, no letterman jacket? Check out her other pretty jewelry here.

Happy initialing! Have a great week. :)
