    • @_kmjo

      Awe thank you so much for your kind words 😁 the letters are right around 3 ft tall. I am 4’11’’, I tried to stand next to them in the video so you could use me as a reference. Hope this helps! ❤️

    @priyankasrivastava7315 3 роки тому +1

    Nice video, I was able to follow the steps and make one myself. But my letters keep falling due to the weight of the wires . Is there a way to keep the letter standing?

    • @_kmjo
      @_kmjo  3 роки тому +2

      Great!! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. If they don’t stand up on their own I’d suggest some heavy duty white tape to secure the letters to the floor. Also, if you haven’t already, tape loose parts of the wires to the back of your letters so the extra weight hanging off the back isn’t pulling them down. Hope this helps!

      The individual light strips plugged into each other. But, I believe we did use one to ply the whole thing into the wall!

    Good job. I'd probably insert the holes before gluing the sides, just my luck, I'm put a huge hole in and then have to start all over again.

    • @_kmjo
      @_kmjo  3 роки тому

      I made the “0” more geometric so it had flat sides and could stand up on its own! If you look up “varsity letter O” you’ll see the same style as in the video and you can just use that shape as your template. I constructed it the same as the other letters though :)

    • @_kmjo
      @_kmjo  2 роки тому

      Thank you so much! I did the “o” the same way I did the other letters. As far as making it 3D. I made sure all the sides are even I used a ruler to measure. Really appreciate the support!

    There's no way this was only 8 buck's! I just made my 22 marquee lights and just the poster board alone and small bulbs was 30 buck's at hobby lobby and I got the cheapest stuff! The pack of lights were 5 bucks for 20 lights! And i got 2 packs and 2 poster boards 3 ft tall and I spent 30 buck's! Maybe she meant 8 buck's for one letter. Either way super cool and I agree with her there's no point in spending so much money seeing that it's only for a party! In my car I made the 22 for a graduation party!!
