I needed a picture of some kind to hang over an air vent in Lucy's new decorated room. After months of searching I still could find anything suitable so decided to have a go myself.
I picked up a canvas from Hobbycraft and bought a large bag of pastel coloured buttons from an Ebay seller. The room is done in mostly pastel shades so picked them but added a few brighter colours in incorporate the bright shades of pink things she has.. ie her enormous bright pink beanbag.
I painted the canvas she same lemon colour as 2 of her walls then did a trial of where the buttons would go to make the letter. L for Lucy in this case.
When I was happy with it I carefully sewed the buttons onto the canvas. Was abit tricky at points as the canvas was pretty thick.
It looks pretty good on the wall and was reasonably easy and cheap to make too.
