My front yard is kind of a plain boring space this time of year. We have a neutral colored house and at the tail end of winter with no snow on the ground everything is just blah. I have added colorful flowers and trees in my front yard to bring color and interest to it during the Spring and Summer months, but until those bloom we are left with a lot of gray. Colorful front door decor this time of year is key to brightening up the front of my home. This floral monogram is large and bright and a wonderful way to welcome guests into my home.

How to make a floral monogram for Spring

Supplies

Hollow cardboard monogram, I used a 16 inch letter from Hobby Lobby
Craft knife
White spray paint
Foam
Hot glue
Faux flowers
Wire cutters (optional)
Ribbon

This monogram is going to be filled with flowers, so start by cutting off the top of the letter with a craft knife and taking out any supporting pieces inside.

To give the letter a finished look, use a glossy white spray paint to cover the back and sides of the letter. While this is drying you can start prepping your flowers. Use a wire cutters to snip off the blooms from flower stems. I used white, coral and yellow to stand out against my gray front door.

Once the paint on the letter is dry, add foam to the inside to act as a base for the flowers. I used craft foam I had left over from a project. You can use floral foam or styrofoam, you just need something that the flowers can stick to.

Then you are ready to start filling in the letter. Using a hot glue gun, start adding large flowers first and fill in the spaced with smaller blooms.
