Yarn wrapped letters.....question!
I am going to make some of these yarn wrapped letters for a nursery but im having one issue. I bought the cardboard or paper mache chunky letters to spell EMMA. Easy peasy right! Well here is the issue. What do i use to hang them on the wall? Everything i see online they have them sitting on shelfs but my sister wont have that option so we want to hang them on the wall. She rents so we are trying to stay away from adding a hook and nailing them in. Anyone have any ideas to hang these letters that wont put wholes in the wall? TIA
Re: Yarn wrapped letters.....question!
3M makes a command strip product that is basically the same as velcro. One strip goes on the wall and the other strip going on the item you want to hang. That way you can easily take the item off the wall and peel off the command on both pieces without tearing. The only thing I'm not sure about is how well the command strip will stick to yarn...worth a try, though.
ETA: I couldn't find the link right away for my original post, but this is what we use for wall letters that are either paper mache or that we can't hang with sawtooth hooks or ribbon.

I thought about those but like you said didn't know how well they would stick to the yarn. I did think about hot glueing the strip to the yarn and see if it would hold that way and not tug on the yarn.
