  1. I have a question. Since you're all about monograms today. My question is, when making someone a gift with their monogram do you typically use the initial from the first or last name. I am going to make a card set for a friend with their monogram. Thanks for your help with this.

  2. I used to be a wedding specialist so I had to learn a lot about monograms for that job and here is the proper etiquette rule:


    When the item is a casual item use the first name initial. If the item is a more formal item use the last name initial. If it is for a couple then use the last initial in any situation.


    If it is a three letter monogram that is all the same size the rule is to do the letters as First Name, Middle Name and Last Name


    If the monogram is a three letter monogram with the larger center initial it goes First Name, Last Name, Middle Name


    If it is for a couple and it's the three letter monogram with the center initial larger it is Woman's Name, Last Name, Man's Name.

  5. This is so fabulous! I have wanted to do one of these for a while. I saw a girl who had made a pom pom one by wraping wool around a template and cuttingit out to get that look.

    I really must try it!
