Mod Podged Comic Book Letters

I made these letters a while ago. Our last name is Byrd and since my hubby and boys love superheroes, I wanted to make some wall art out of comic books. Of course I had to have the hubby pick out which comic books were acceptable to tear up and I was ready to create!

This is what I made:






I like them all, but like the way that the Superman one turned out the best. What do you think?



I am participating in Made By You Mondays for the first time!


I am also participating in Debbiedoo's Newby Party for the second week!

    I think they are great! I may try modifying it a bit and making some for my little boy using sports pages. Thanks for visiting my site. I am glad we are now blogging buddies!

    I think those are ULTRA cool, and so would both my boys. I have lots of old comic books...I may have to consider that. Thanks for joining the party.

    I think superman turned out the best to, but spidey is a close second! I love this! I was just threatening the hubby that I was going to mod podge his shoes with comic books- this might be better!

    So neat!! I love the Superman too but I really love the placement of the Green Lantern! My dad and brother are huge comic book lovers and this is right up their alley! I recently posted about my son's superhero bedroom if you wanted to take a look! http://aturtleslifeforme.blogspot.com/2011/02/its-bird-its-plane-its-little-boys.html

    Oh my goodness - LOVE LOVE LOVE this!! My hubby and son are also comic obsessed, so I'm spinning with ideas on how to do the same! So funny that you had to ask which ones to use - my husband would be the same way. :) I can't decide if I love the spiderman or superman one more - absolutely awesome!

    Those are great! My son has his name on his wall, but the letters are just white. We did his room in a Star Wars theme this past fall and I have never really known what more to with the letters. Now you've given me a great idea! BTW, Following you back.

    I was stopping by to say thanks for your comment and becoming a follower of my blog. As I was cruising you blog these definitely caught my eye. I showed them to my son who is 18 and going through a comic book stage. We both agree that we love them and we are going to make some for his room using our last name.
