Hi everyone, after I shared my M-shaped gift box for Mothers Day I received so many comments and emails asking if I would make more letters, so…I’ve decided to do the whole alphabet!
I’ve decided to keep with the same 6′ height for all the letters and just alter the width for each letter, this way if you want to spell out a certain word, they will all be the same height and match.
They are pretty easy to make and can be filled with anything.
The decorations used are purchased from The Works UK, Poundland & The Range UK.
MEASUREMENTS NEEDED TO MAKE THIS ‘E’ LETTER
