Fabric Word Art Supplies: picture frame (I chose 8×10 for my project) fabric scraps, about 3-square inches per letter burlap or alternate plain fabric, large enough to fill your frame fusible web (mine is heavy duty) a single button letter stencils scissors iron/ironing board 1) gather your supplies and make sure each fabric scrap is large enough to accommodate your letter 2) iron the fabric pieces to one side of the fusible web (according to package instructions) 3) trace your letter stencils onto the backs of the fabric scrap, one letter per fabric scrap. Make sure you trace it backwards so that it faces forward when you iron it on! 4) cut out the letter and removed the paper backing **the next steps can be reversed, per your desire. I chose to iron on the letters AFTER the burlap was framed, but you could iron on the letters and then frame the burlap. Whatever is easiest for you! 5) place your burlap into the frame, over the glass 6) arrange your letters into the frame and CAREFULLY iron them on to the burlap. This worked for me because my entire iron fit inside my frame. If your frame is smaller than the length and width of your iron, this would not work for you. In that case, iron on the letters before framing! 7) using hot glue, attach a cute button as your period! I propped my art on the book ledge and called it complete. I think it adds the perfect touch! I added a cubby storage unit from Target and some cute bins and now my daughter has a brand new toy/book nook in her room! To see her full nursery tour before I made this little change, go here. So cute -SPxx
