How to Make an Easy Yarn-Wrapped Ombre Monogrammed Letter!
What you need:- Yarn in 3 different shade of pink - light, medium, dark
- Martha Stewart embellishments
- Wooden letter "L "
Directions:
Step 1:
Apply craft glue to the backside, the top, and bottom of the letter. I glued about three inches, started wrapping, then add more glue as I moved up.
I left the ends of the yarn long until the whole thing had dried. Then I trimmed them.
Step 2:
Add pretty embellishments. The ones I chose had sticky tape on the back, and I was done!
The whole thing probably took about an hour and the longest part was waiting for the glue to dry.

How do you wrap the top of the letter? Or do you leave that undone?

What kind of glue did you use? Would Elmer's work?

I was just wondering how would I do this with the letter M without making it look weird. Like if I was to do it ombré like that. It would be a light colour on one side and be dark on the other.

I made a C out of Chipboard. As long as you are careful card board should work. Good Luck :)
