I chose a W for our last name which was easy to work with! I hung mine but it is super heavy/sturdy and would rest standing up with ease.
All you will need is a letter, candy corn, hot glue gun, and I used paint. I painted my W orange you could do yellow or white as well. But you will see bits and pieces of whatever letter you decide to use.
I laid out my plan before I started gluing to make sure everything fit..I would then remove 4-6 pieces at a time and put a lot of hot glue and quickly attach them. The kids loved helping because they ate all of the not so perfect pieces.
The end product is very cute! It fit well on the mirror in our living room pulling off the oranges and yellows in the room.
I just love it. A perfect decoration for the fall, or even could be placed on a wreath. I've loved being a part of this lovely Autumn series at the Ivy Cottage Blog!
I will also be linking up with 320 Sycamore with this project that took less then a hour and was way under 10 dollars! It cost me under 5.00 actually!


Super cute & easy idea! Ugh, it is posts like these I wish we all shared the last name in our house!
