\"\"<\/a>I finally had a chance to make these fabric covered letters for Emma’s door. It was really easy, here are the instructions:<\/span>
\n1. Materials – fabric scraps, Wooden letters (from a craft shop), Glue stick (suitable for wood and fabric), small sharp scissors or clippers, double sided tape<\/span>
\n2. Smear glue generously onto wrong side of fabric, place letter front down onto fabric<\/span>
\n3. Turn over and smooth fabric firmly over letter. Allow glue to dry<\/span>
\n4. With sharp scissors or clippers, cut fabric away from edge of wooden letter <\/span>
\n\"\"<\/a>Apply double sided tape to back of letter and it’s ready to stick to your door<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Handy Hints:<\/span>
\nTry and let glue dry as long as possible to avoid glue getting your cutting blades sticky.<\/span>
\nI found that clippers worked better for me because the sharp tips helped get into tight spots.<\/span>
\nChoose light weight tightly woven fabric to make cutting easier and reduce fraying.<\/span>
\nAlcohol based hand sanitiser is good at getting sticky glue residue off cutting blades.<\/span><\/p>\n

Have a go at making your own covered letters, would love to see them. Post a link in the comments or a picture up on the <\/span>facebook page<\/a><\/p>\n
