Things you will need:
Large sequins (mine came in a pack of silver and gold from Michael's)
Elmer's glue
Wood letter (Jo-ann)
paint for sides (optional)
1. Put 2 or more coats of paint on the side of your letter. I wanted mine to be bright and to pop. So I used the color spearmint by craft smart. I think I got it from Michael's. This step is optional and you can leave it the color of your letter.
2. Once the paint has dried, take your glue and put a line all the way across the bottom of your letter.
3. Start placing the sequins on the glue. Slightly coving the last one (refer to the picture if that part is confusing!!) Once that row is done, apply glue right above those sequins. Adding more if you think it's necessary.
4. Allow to dry completely. Then hang on the wall!
** Update: August 16 2013. Use a different glue. Hot glue works well. I have had to glue a couple sequins back on! Mine hang over the edge making it difficult to pick up the letter! The sequins just pop off if you don't hold it just right! If your sequins do not go over the edge of your letter you will be fine using the Elmer's glue.
