Boo-tastic Fabric Wrapped Letters

by Marie on October 9, 2008

I’ve taken this fun idea from Goody-Goody for fabric wrapped letters, and turned it into a Halloween decoration. I cut strips of black and orange fabric and using hot glue, wrapped it around wire. I’m having so much fun with these letters, I plan on making some for every holiday.

We make Halloween bags for our children, so I have a ton of extra cute halloween fabric. Thank you for the great idea, I know feel better about saving all the leftovers.

I saw your “boo sign” yesterday at your house and thought it was adorable. Good Idea!

I love that. Did you just use metal hangers and pliers or what?

This would be a great one for any time of year. Words like “believe” or “dream” would be nice too!

Ashley – I just used craft wire. I didn’t need pliers or wire cutters for my wire because the pieces came in foot long lengths. Check out Goody Goody’s blog for all the how-to details.

Thrilled – Yep, that’s my piano. I think it’s a great spot too.

Marie – I love this idea! We’re definitely making these! Noah is learning how to spell words and just learned the “oo” sound. “Boo” is perfect for him!
