Obsession of the Day: Monogram Stickers!

So this is the first of what I expect will be many posts about one of my top obsessions: monograms.  I seriously can’t get enough! 

I’m on fall break right now, which means I’ve had enough spare time to figure out how to make my own monogrammed printables (with some tips from Pinterest, of course).  This morning I decided that some random items of mine needed monograms... so I made monogram stickers!  Not nearly as complicated as it sounds!  I assembled the stickers in a PowerPoint file; all I needed was a monogram font (many are available for download) and some images for the backgrounds found via Google.  Print it out on full sheet label paper:

Seriously the most useful office supply ever

Cut out the images with an X-Acto knife, and you’ve got your stickers!

I kind of went crazy with monogramming things:

The back of my Lilly Pulitzer calculator got a monogram!

My Lilly Pulitzer jumbo agenda got a monogram!

My hairbrush got a monogram!

My travel plastic pill box got a monogram!

Even my blush ended up monogrammed!

For now I’m out of ideas for where I could use my monogram stickers, but I’m sure I’ll think of some more soon!  If you have any ideas I'd love to hear them!

First Post!

Hey everyone!

So I'm starting a blog, for no real reason other than I've decided I need more things in my life that are just fun and not work.  Plus I need another outlet for all of my preppy and monogrammed discoveries!  I don't know yet how often I'm going to be posting, so we'll see how it goes.  I'm not expecting to get a lot of readers (but if I do, that's great!), so I'm mainly doing this just for me.  I'm keeping this blog mostly anon, in conjunction with my twitter account (@PinkPrepPearls), but this will probably be a bit more personal than my twitter.  Ok, well I'm going to go finish customizing the layout, so stay tuned!

xoxo!
