Inspired by a pair of monogrammed cufflinks that Kevin Spacey's character, Frank Underwood, was given on House of Cards, I created my own pair to celebrate National Scrabble Day!
Scrabble tiles + glue = the easiest DIY version of these cufflinks you'll ever make!
Here’s a rundown of the supplies you’ll need:
1. Tacky glue – (I used Aleene's "Turbo Tacky Glue" - it's got some serious hold power!)
2. Cufflink blanks (I ordered a dozen on Amazon– will have plenty for extra gifts!)
3. Scrabble pieces (if you can find one at a garage sale or at Goodwill, awesome! Otherwise snag a batch of letters on Amazon or Ebay!)
This project literally couldn't be any easier. First, add a dab of tacky glue to the back of the cufflink blank.
Put your letter tile on top of the glued blank, push in place, and let dry.
Repeat the previous step to complete both cufflinks and let dry overnight.
How about that for some monogrammed action, Kev?
Taking the essence of the links from House of Cards, you can DIY dad or the boyfriend or the other family member/friend/pal/etc. a pair of monogrammed cufflinks of their own.
Easy and totally budget-friendly! Now who's in for a game of Scrabble?
