I love this idea of hanging our LO's name above his crib but I'm not sure how I want to do it yet.
My sister is creative and is willing to help me paint them, but do I want ribbon hung letters? Or do I just want them flat against the wall? I also saw recently where someone had a shelf above the crib with the letters set on it (picture below) and I really like that, but I'm nervous about letters falling on him
Sooo what are you doing??

No, this is just a picture I found online with the shelf and letters. It's an adorable color scheme though!
If it's a boy, we'll be putting a "C" decal in a circle on the wall over his crib. If it's a girl, I'm sure her name or a "B" will be somewhere in the room, but not over the crib. I have a quote I'm going to have made into a decal and put over her crib.
The only thing I feel comfortable putting "over" a crib is a wall decal.

Why not use vinyl wall clings. They stick directly to the wall and when you want to take them down they peel right off with no damage. Uppercase Living www.uppercaseliving.com has some where you can have your LO?s name printed out.

I bought 4 inch squares at Hobby Lobby. I'm going to spray paint them all red- well DH is going to anyway. I also bought Cricut brand vinyl. I'm going to use my Mickey & Friends cartridge to write out the baby's name (Paetyn/Keaton) and two mickey mouse heads on the ends. I'll put the vinyl on the blocks and hang it over the crib (I think).
I think I will do wooden letters on ribbons, but not over the crib.
I would suggest using 3M Command Adhesive hooks if you would like to save your walls. I use them to hang things all the time cuz I hate to poke holes in my walls. They come in all kinds of different shapes and sizes and are really easy to hide with the thing you are hanging. Just make sure you get the hook with the right weight limit for the job.
