    Which font did you select? Where did you buy the boards from? And what brand of glue gun? This is THE BEST lightup letter tutorial. And you describe things well. Congrats on your big day. All the effort you put in... he better treat you like gem.😂

    You're so talented, I love the way they turned out. I'm sure it's so much cheaper then buying some already made or to rent some. How tall are those letters you made in this video? Thanks for sharing your super helpful idea.

    • @_kmjo
      @_kmjo  Před 2 lety +1

      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
    @priyankasrivastava7315 Před 2 lety +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  Před 2 lety +1

      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!

  • @janellebatson
    @janellebatson Před rokem

    Great job! Did you actually use poster board or phone board? It looked like it bent real easy so I wanted to know what the actual material was. Thanks in advance!

    • @_kmjo
      @_kmjo  Před rokem

      I believe it was labeled thick poster board but I’m sure foam board would work too!

    These look great! I'm working on 6ft letters with this similar font. How did you go about cutting the angles for the sides of "o" to make it 3D? Thanks in advance!

    • @_kmjo
      @_kmjo  Před 2 lety

      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!

    @katricewalker6991 Před 2 lety +1

    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

    Im curious how u did the "O"

    • @_kmjo
      @_kmjo  Před 2 lety

      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 :)

      I used a standard poster board!

  • @hilianaperez2421
    @hilianaperez2421 Před 2 lety +1

    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!!

    Did you use an extension cord for all the lights to light up at once ?

    • @_kmjo
      @_kmjo  Před rokem

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