I make these letters for all my friends when they have kids. I've also sold a few too. I buy the letters plain and paint them a range of shades. Usually pinks for girls and blues for boys but each letter is always a a little diff. I ahve also done greens, purples, lemon's and a mixture. I then stick on a range of decorations .ie ribbon, stars, hearts, buttons or flowers and polka dots that I paint on. I love doing it and people appreciate it because it's something that is unique and special for each name I make.
