I also wonder if the cheapo readers/ Claire's fashion glasses you can get by the dozen would have the same effect for this project.

I didn't make the dress form - it is a Styrofoam one that I got where I used to work. I work in display and the store was throwing them out. I got 3 of them. I gave one away on my blog about a year ago. If you type in a search on Google for Styrofoam Dress Form you may be able to find one. Some are pricey, but you can still find these inexpensively every now and then on Ebay and Etsy, too. Hi Madelene-

Love it. The other thing that drew me in was that dress form, did you make that too? I tried making a paper butcher tape one once but it didn't look nearly that nice. This is SUCH a Great idea!!!

I always get compliments on it. The glue was tricky with the coated plastic lenses. If you can find real glass lenses you won't have any problems with the glue. I could not find any. Flea markets probably. Hi Dianne with 2 “n”s-

I love how you added the bead...really put the finishing touch to it.

I used to use Microsoft Publisher, but I recently got Photoshop Elements and have been using that to create monograms with. Publisher is an old program that came on my computer and I became pretty proficient. It used to be bundled with Microsoft Office. The key is to open a new document and create each letter seperately in its own text box on the page. The center letter being a larger size font. Once you have each letter in its own text box - then move them to fit together to create a monogram. You can then print it. I have a PC. Do you have Publisher or another drawing program - Paint or a Mac program. I hope this helps you out. Hi Gina-
