Easy Blingy Valentine Letters

DCWV Bling XO Letters

Happy Valentine’s month! Why stop at just the 14th? Love should get a whole month don’t you think? Not saying I’ll have a month’s worth of projects but I do think I will leave things up for the month ( attn Mr. Chocolate).

I was tired of my previous Valentine’s decor so set out with no particular idea in mind to change it up this year. While on a  stroll through Michaels I stumbled upon these letters in the clearance aisle and thought they’d be perfect for VDay.  They’re MDF or chipboard or something.

In my DCWN stash, I had some self adhesive bling sheets that can be cut into different shapes and which I thought would be perfect for these letters:

Trace the letters on the back and then cut out using plain old ( but sharp) scissors. Before I put the bling on, I painted the sides and edges of the letters and applied  scrapbook paper to the back with Mod Podge.

I like that I can mix up my letters by showing both blingy, or one blingy and one paper or both paper or….

Then easy peasy, peeled off the backing from the bling sheet letters, applied, and trimmed with a craft knife.

  • Letters to decorate ( can use wood, paper mache, etc.)

  1. I have been obsessed with these letters lately, how great you found an X and an O! I love the blingy adhesive strip, never seen before. Do I have to buy it on Amazon?

  2. That is quite surprising... I have never heard of that before reading your post!
    It makes me quite puzzled and angry too!
