I've been playing around with little scraps of paper! Here are some text pieces made entirely from little doodled pieces of paper:
I love the way they turned out. And they were super easy to make. I just doodled all over some layout bond paper (it's strong but nice and thin for collage) and cut it up into letter shapes.
In some places, I added additional little paper cuts to help embellish the letters.
This is the original alphabet I made when I was trying to figure out how this was going to work:
I liked the idea, but I decided that I didn't like the way I had laid out the letters, so I made another (the first image in this post). It's a quick enough process that it really wasn't a big deal to do it twice.
I plan to put the two framed pieces in the baby's room. I think he'll enjoy them.
Thanks for stopping by!

Those are wonderful. My baby (some years back) thought the mobile in the laundry room was the best thing ever. Consider one of these clippy things: https://www.amazon.com/Wee-Gallery-Kikkerland-Mobile-Silver/dp/B00274S8BA You could just add stuff as you find things to hang. Baby’d probably like it empty lol.
