I love monograms. I've been wanting to get an "S" for sometime to decorate our bookshelf with, but just haven't found the right one. Then I was thinking I could paper mache one, but that was all before I thought of making a twine "S."
The moment I thought of the idea, I wanted to get to work. So I grabbed a paper plate and freehanded an "S." This was a bit more challenging than I had anticipated, but after about three tries I was satisfied with what I had.
...and started to wrap the letter.
I kept wrapping and having to stop from time to time to cut off the extremely frayed sections of the twine.
Finally it was finished and after a quick trim to tame the beast...yes it was beastly. . .
It was finished and looked great!
Love it. Probably my favorite twine project!

I love twine, but all I've ever used it for was b-day gift bows...tag attachment etc. These are some very creative ideas! Thanks so much for sharing this! I'm a follower!
