Any home decor scheme can benefit from a touch of glam, and this sequin-covered letter craft is an easy and quick project. But careful! Once you start gluing sequins to letters, you’ll find it hard to stop glamming up the rest of your decor! Lucky for you, this technique can be used to decorate many other items, such as picture frames, blank books, or even pillow covers.
Supplies are not hard to find for these sparkly letters. For this project, head straight to your local craft store, where you’ll find a large selection of wooden or cardboard letterforms, as well as many colors of sequin trim. Don’t forget to stock up on hot glue sticks while you’re there.

Once you’re finished making your sequined Valentine’s letter, display it on a bookshelf, hang it on your wall, or put it on your fireplace mantle. Add a few other Valentine’s Day home decor accents, and you’re ready to celebrate the season of love.
This project is easy to adapt to your own personal style, even time of year. Choose your favorite color of sequin trim to express yourself, or choose your first initial to create a monogram just for you that can be displayed year-round. You can also use any other kind of fabric or ribbon to cover the letterform, so feel free to tap into your own personal style to make your own unique creation.
Money-saving tip: Instead of wrapping the letter completely with sequin trim, cut smaller pieces of the trim and hot glue them to the front of the letter, securing them to the back of the letter with hot glue. This process takes slightly longer, but creates very tidy results.
