Default Do you have wall letters that you like?

I'd like to get cute ones for my daughter. There are lots of choices on line and on ebay. Did you all get name letters for kiddos bedrooms, do you like them and where did you get them from? Thanks!

Kelli

We got some at Michaels for 99 cents per letter, bought paint to match them w/DD's bedding, and tied ribbon on them to hang. We love how they turned out! I can post a pic if you'd like.

I ordered on ebay from the seller tonifrg and am extremely happy with mine. I sent her a swatch of my nursery fabric (umm, I mean DD's nursery fabric ;) ). She matched the letters to the fabric exactly as I requested, and the price isn't bad for hand-painted letters. She has a bunch of fonts and does great work! It does take a while to get the letters, due to the number of orders she has, but it's worth the wait IMO. Here's a pic of ours from when we first hung them:

I was also really pleased with tonifrg...she did a very nice job with my daughter's custom letters from fabric swatches. I can post a picture if you want!

We got ours from Merry Go Round in Bellevue, WA which is a local seller of baby furniture and gear. I don't remember the brand. When we bought them 2 were baby blue and 1 was pink and one was white. When I did his room up in May/June I spray painted them red. I would suggest getting ones that you like shape wise and then painting them. this is how ours turned out:

I know it is a total trend but I like them!

we also bought ours at Michael's, unfinished. Painted them white and attached ribbon to match the bedding. Pink gingham for dd#1 room, purple gingham for dd#2.

Default these are adorable

another ebay seller, a different look painted to canvas. you send or tell her what your fabric is and she coordinates to it. I have no personal experience with them, though- just stumbled across them. I also love the look of the of other ebay seller posted.

I got letters from this seller (I think she's also on Ebay, but I don't know her id). I sent her a picture of our room and a link to our bedding (Land of Nod) They turned out beautifully and totally matched DD nursery. I loved them so much that I ordered a set for my nephew. (FYI-It takes a few months to get them.)
