I was inspired by pinterest. Shocker! That wonderful addicting site, has my brain going crazy every stinkin’ night! I made this as a gift for my BFF’s baby boy’s nursery. (Remember the beach inspired baby shower?)
Here is the inspiration art from pinterest, originally from THIS etsy store. (You can buy a personalized poster for $15) She has another really cute ABC poster too.
Funny thing is, I made the print, framed it, and it wasn’t until I was about to wrap it up that I realized something was missing…
I just decided to leave out the “S”. No big deal. Just one of the 26 letters of our alphabet! I re-arranged and added the “S” back into the alphabet.
I was pretty happy with how it turned out. If you have a baby boy named Jonah and want the print, you can download it with the link above. Oh and here is a sneak peak at the personalized, recycled wrapping paper. And I made the stuffed owl out of t-shirts so he is extra soft!

Could you tell me which font & what size you used? I’m trying to make this for a baby shower this Saturday and I’m having a hard time keeping everything on one page.
Thanks!

Century Gothic and the ABC’s are in 100 size. You will have to work with the spacing and the size of the name at the bottom.
