Monogrammed letters
Monograms add just the right amount of classic and traditional decor to any home and these are so easy to make, you'll want to make one for every room in your house! Simple cut out a letter from a piece of cardboard and wrap it in coloured yarn to match your room, then secure it using a hot glue gun.

Washi tape comes in so many fun colours and patterns it might be hard to choose your favourites though.
