For awhile now, I've been dreaming up dorm room ideas for the start of my sophomore year- I needed something bright, fun and cheap to decorate my walls. I was a girl on a mission to bring style into my dorm without blowing a paycheck (can't touch the shoe fund!)
I stumbled into Michael's one day to find all of their giant letters on sale for 99 cents, originally $5 each. (Score!!) So of course I had to buy three to make the wall monogram I had been imagining. Even the paint was on sale, and I knew it was meant to be.
A project that would have typically cost me around $20, rang up at only $4 at the register. How can you say no to a deal like that? You don't!
I used FolkArt brand acrylic paint on my letters. It was only about $1 and the perfect amount of paint needed to complete the project. You'll also need some sort of paint brush-- I used a foam brush that I had laying around and it worked great!
Voila!
A great way to dress up a dorm!
