I absolutely love your monogram but seeing that I am not that computer savvy I was wondering if you could explain how you did yours by copying the image from the internet. TIA~~

I recreated it from scratch. I located mine on http://danandbrianna.com/bio_bio/Monogram_bio_bioupdated.html

here's the page I located mine.

I first emailed her just to make it for me (cuz I'm LAZY) but she said she was no longer doing them so I got to work on DIY... (ps-I quickly scanned her page and it looks like she took down that she's not operating anymore... so maybe get her to create you one)

Well, with the editorial above, you can download a tropical font. Once I had that, it was pretty much easy. I am computer saavy and even went to school for publication design for a little while but I didn't have the fancy programs anymore. So I pulled up PowerPoint. This can also be done in Paint or Microsoft Editor. You do NOT need to be a pro to create a monogram.

For mine I made 4 filled in boxes with a color I wanted, then choose a font for the letters, and then a used used WM Tree font for the palm tree.

Again, here's more helpful tips from her site... (she's a former knottie!)

I just googled "DIY Monograms" and this is a site that popped up. Step by Step Monogram in PowerPoint.

GL and let me know if you need anything else! Can't wait to see how your guys turn out!
