  9. I would LOVE to make it into a wall decal for our nursery. We’ve got a couple months left before the little one arrives and we don’t yet know boy/girl and we’re having trouble coming up with names we agree on so the hard part would be coming up with the initials! Thank you!

  36. As a Southern girl, I know you can never have too much monogramming! Where WOULDN’T I use it? I think that monogrammed linens would be a high priority, though.

  37. My house is a definite work in progress, so I’m not entirely sure where I would use the monograms, but I’m sure they’d serve as an inspiration piece for my dining room or my living room or my sunroom or my entryway or my bedroom. Gosh, the possibilities are astounding!

  38. I love monograms! I would make notecards, frame them, and put them on pillows!

  39. Super cool! I recently got a craft cutter so I’m sure i’d come up with a million uses…. custom thank-you cards are coming to mind.

I wanted to do have a monogram in the top space above the mirror on the actual wood. I had in my mind’s eye exactly what I thought I wanted….however, I hadn’t seen these monograms!! These are way cuter than anything I could have imagined!! Thank you for sharing and I’m off to add her to facebook and sign up as a follower!

  78. I would LOVE to win one of these! I am a monogram JUNKIE. I would probably cut it out of vinyl and put it somewhere in my house; maybe a mirror? And I might also digitize it to embroider on some throw pillows! SWOON. Thanks for offering this giveaway!

  79. I’d get the wall art!! Squee it’s lovely! thanks for the heads up on such a talented person!

  80. I’d love to integrate them into our wedding reception in various ways. Favor boxes, candles, wine glasses –sky’s the limit!

  87. I love to monogram everything. I loved the monograms that she has in the black frames. Beautiful.

  88. Oh Wow… I’ve always wanted a custom monogram of my initials. I’d LOVE to frame my initials and hang them in the wall in a beautiful frame. Or have them embroidered onto a accent pillow. Or perhaps have some stationary printed. Or address labels. Or…..

    :)
    ButterYum

  89. The better question is what wouldn’t I do with my own monograms! Great giveaway!!

  90. I haven’t worn my monogram for years, but have really been missing the look. I’d have several wardrobe items updated with my new monogram!

  91. I love the pillows! I would definitely do that but wouldn’t stop there! :) Thanks!

  92. The monograms are beautiful. I love the monogram pillows in particular. I want to rest on a cushion with the letter “J.” It would make me feel a little extra special-almost queenly!

  93. I love Cathe’s monograms above. I’m always amazed to see who creative some people are and Cathe certainly is. If I were so lucky as to win, I would love to see my initials on notepads to use at the office or on my linens on the bed. Thanks for the giveaway..

  94. I love Cathe! I use her printable downloads for all sorts of things. I would use the monogram for a custom address stamp for starters, and a hundred and one things after that.

  95. I adore these monograms, and would hope to use it in both traditional and non-traditional ways. Beautiful note cards and stationary sets come to mind. An exquisite sheet set would be a lovely touch as well but I can also see a fantastic monogrammed headboard as a focal point in a bedroom or a very unique welcome mat. It would also be fantastic etched onto a mirror, or even painted on to a set of dinnerware. I’d love to win this giveaway!

  96. I want this giveaway more than any I have ever entered. I used to have a monogram stamp with my two initials. I found it at a store in Disney. I used it to stamp the students notebooks and as my signature. Well one of those rascals stole it. I miss it so bad. OOOOOO I hope I am randomly drawn!!!!!!

  97. This is nothing short of an amazing giveaway! I would have simple linen napkins embroidered with my monogram and use them for dinner EVERY night of the week!!

  98. What would I do??? Everything! Towels, stationary, aprons, framed prints, pillows…you name it!

    Great giveaway! Thanks!

  99. I’d probably use a giant one as a wall decal or maybe even to put on my bedroom door. I like the idea of using them on pillows too! Maybe a couple in my bedroom!

  100. I Love those! I would have them each framed and put in our front entrance, or next to my bed, or on my family photo wall…..ahhh I wouldn’t be able to decide!

  101. I think I would do a wall decal with family photos around it. Off to tweet about it!

  102. Oh, how I have been wanting one of these! I am pregnant with my first baby (a girl) and I would use the monogram for her. :)

  103. The monogram designs are beautiful. I would use them for the handmade holiday cards I make every year.

  104. I would use the monogram for thank you cards and letterhead. I think it would also be fun to make a pendant necklace with one, too. :)

  105. I love Cathe’s work! She is one talented chica. If I won the monogram, I would definitely do the notecards, and maybe have it put on a pillow. Thanks so much for this great giveaway.

  106. What wouldn’t I do with my own monogram! :-) I love having custom “from the mom of ” notepads so I could use them for that but also I would use them for the front door. I also love a good stamp so I would have to use it for that as well. If you saw me walking down the street wearing it on my shirt (like Laverne of Laverne and Shirley) don’t laugh!

  107. I’d love to have letterhead/cards with my monogram. Thanks for the give away~

  108. If I won I would love to have letterhead or a T-Shirt. These are beautiful. Thanks.

  109. I am now a follower of the Just Something I made blog. She has some cute stuff. LOVE the children’s kitchen ideas. Very cute.

  111. Oh fantastic! I would use it for homedecor (my future studio) and stationary for sure. And perhpaps linnens or pillowcases too!

  112. These are gorgeous! I would get them in one of best girlfriend’s initials for her upcoming birthday!

  113. I love monograms – so classic! I would love to use a large monogram as a piece of art. Also, towels are lovely.

  114. I’m a stationery fan, so would have to use it on some fabulous note paper, but I also love the framed prints… and the cushions… and the business cards… So many possibilities – yay!!

  115. I would use it on my blog and probably some home decor. I’m betting she wouldn’t be able to find my initials!

  116. Very cool and a perfect addition to the wall in my craftroom. Following blog and on Twitter

  117. Awesome giveaway! I would use the monograms for son’s new big boy room. Specifically, his lampshade, a pillow and on the surface of a tray!

  118. Love this! I would have it made into a address stamp – who doesn’t love “real” mail nowadays…especially fancy mail! :)

  119. I have an art wall that a framed monogram would be perfect… I would also love it for thank you cards and notes.

  125. I am bad at putting pictures on the walls, I would choose the framed monogram and hang it.

  126. Those monograms are soo beautiful! The first thing I can think of is I’d print them off with edible ink and use them on my 5 year anniversary cake!

  127. I would use the monogram for our new baby!! Love monograms and am so excited to have this great resource now! Thanks!!

  128. I am newly pregnant (first time mom!) and would use a huge monogram on the grey Oeuf Eco-friendly Sparrow Crib to add some flare!

  129. I would use them for business cards, wall decals, and on items for my classroom/teaching. I LOVE these so much.

    Thank you for allowing me to enter~

  131. So cute! I would use the monogram to make some cute vintage calling cards.

  132. I would use the monogram on my business cards…I would also put it as a wall sticker in my entry hall…my husband and I share the same initials.

  133. I would love to use them on some throw pillows in my office on the couch that I am in the process of re-designing. They would make a great statement in a peacock color on a beige background!!!

  134. I would use the monogram for my library book plates. I would appliqué on a linen pillow – while I’m writing this comment more ideas keep popping up in my head: I would silk screen it a tad darker than a watermark and print it on a linen tablecloth and then…. also on the corner of linen cocktail napkins. And just as Melissa who made her comment before mine, my husband and I share the same initials as well: Alfredn & Alexandra Alcantara. Love the letter “A”
    I’ve been following Cate’s blog and tweeter for a while already! Wish me luck!

  135. I have a couple of friends getting married in August and this would make a smashing gift!

  137. Love these! I’d transfer the monogram onto canvas and use it as above-the-headboard art, and maybe stick them on some coasters. :)

  138. Monday is my birthday, so I think it should be my lucky day too! I think monogrammed pillowcases would be adorable, or a pretty monogrammed throw pillow for the sofa. I love monograms!

  176. I would actually give this to my friend to use in her wedding. Her fiancee and she are broke PHD students trying to plan a mostly DIY wedding for next June and I think having their own beautiful monogram would be a perfect jumping off point in helping set the mood and design of the event.

  177. My friend is an aspiring interior designer, giving this to her will be very inspirational…

  178. I have admired these monograms for so long! They are beautiful and so classic! I would monogram everything with them! Please pick me!!

  179. OH my gosh! I am in love. Like, major LOVE. I adore these monograms. I would use them on EVERYTHING!!! They are absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for such a wonderful giveaway!

  180. Newly married with a new home and nothing monogrammed to show for it – please help! We’ve fallen on some hard times right now and all of my very favorite things in life (stationary, a monogrammed headboard, calling cards) don’t seem to be the essentials that fit into our budget (rent, insurance etc!) I absolutely adore every single monogram Cathe makes – seriously, how stunning is her work!! – and would be so grateful to add a little personalized sunshine in my life… maybe a wall decal for our new living room and of course new stationary to write you both a thank you note with!!

  181. I love this and could use it for so many things..business cards, stationary, linens, logo for my new company, etc, etc etc! Simply gorgeous.

  182. Happily following Cathe from Just Something I Made….hope I win ’cause I really want this monogram!!! x

  183. I love monograms. I could put my initials on just about anything: thank you notes, business cards (have been meaning to get some of those), home decor, napkins, plates, they would be gorgeous etched in glass or on mugs, embroidered into a longchamp or other type of bag, pillowcases, i could go on forever!

  184. I love Just something I made! I now am following her. She has so many beautiful things and ideas!

  185. I’ve been wanting to add a vinyl monogram to our tub in the master bath the jazz things up a bit. It would be even more special if it was made just for us.

  186. I think this is wonderful idea. As a history and art teacher, I how she has taken something old and reworked into something so modern! I would use the monogram invitations to my house warming party!

  187. These monograms are amazing. I would make a custom set of dishes with the monogram.

  188. I am now following Cathe on twitter! So excited to see lots of great stuff.

  189. Wow these are great! I’ve always wanted something like this. If I were to win, I would use it for stationary or probably some nice pillows. Thank you!

  190. I just got engaged, so I imagine a custom monogram would find a prominent place at my wedding!

  191. I would paste the fantastic (I already follow her and love her work!!) monogram to my forehead for fun.
    Just kidding. Just wanted to see if you read these.
    In reality, I’d incorporate it everywhere…custom stationery would be my first choice and new business cards the second!
    Hugs,
    Lana

  192. Oh my goodness, my brain is spinning with ideas. I have four kids, all have the same initials. How cool would it be to give them special monograms to make up for the monotony :) Thanks so much for the opportunity to get that started!

  193. Wow! The potential here is amazing! I think I would see if I could have some decals made to put on some of my files and binders. I would love to put them on pillow cases, too. My monogram looks funky when done by a traditional monogram machine (JCL), so it’d be nice to get one done just for me. :)

  194. Brilliant! I just lost my job and I would have stationery made to write thank you notes following job interviews and to my references.

  195. I would love a stamp with our monogram! OR a wall decal for the skinny wall in our entry!!!

  196. I’m getting married and I would loooooove to use this monogram on everything! From cocktail napkins to a custom gobo light to shine on the dance floor. If I don’t win this giveaway, I totally buying one anyways!

  197. I would use them for business cards, home decor, and probably some thank you cards!

  198. I would use these lovely monograms on dish and bath towels. I would also etch some drinking glasses!
    Thanks for the amazing giveaway!

  199. I follow Cathe on Twitter and have been a subscriber to her blog on Bloglines for a few months. Love both of yours! thanks!

  200. What wouldn’t I do!!! I would make a vinyl wall sticker for the entrance of our house.

  201. I would put in on the mirror of our buffet in the dinning room! We just movec to Paris and need to rearrange the whole appartment. This would be awesome!

  202. I would LOVE to have my fiancee and my initials used to make one of these beautiful monograms. Our wedding is next April and I’d use the monogram EVERYWHERE! Save the dates, invitations, menus, even a rubber stamp to mark gift bags, etc. Oh I’m just seeing the beauty now. What an incredible addition that would be!!

  203. I’d love a monogrammed pillow for our bed.

  205. Wow–beautiful. I’d have to put my monogram on everything–to start with, I’d embroider a very oversized version on a duvet cover! Then have note cards printed…an over-sized version framed…tea towels…

  206. I’d make a pillow or two for our (almost complete) newly redecorated master bedroom…or even plaster it right on the headboard, as I haven’t decided what to do with that yet!

  207. I’d love to frame several different variations in a collage on a wall in my office… she is so talented!

  208. I would have to start with stationary or a pillow but I could go on and on!!! My daughter’s initails are CH (with no middle name) so I loved all the examples of CH monograms in your post!

  209. I love it! I would have it silkscreened onto a pillow for our bedroom, and would probably use it as inspiration to get my personal Website done and use it there and on the coordinating business cards!

  210. I love this!! I would totally use this on my business card and may or may not get a tattoo! :)

  211. These are fantastic! I recently purchased a bunch of different “R”s to make a collage on a wall of our monogram- these would be amazing next to my other R’s!

  212. Love these! They are so original! I’ve always had a thing for monograms, and these are just gorgeous! I would love to place it above my bed, or on some pillows, or frame and collage them like in the picture. The options are endless with these!

  213. for my daughters room, we just moved and it would be beautiful for the princess!

  214. these are lovely and so regal. i think i would use mine for a pillow. at one point i monogrammed everything in site. it is time for a fresh wave.

  215. OOH! Pretty! I would use them at the entryway of my home– what a great way to welcome someone in!

  216. How neat! I would use it for new business cards. Thanks for the giveaway :)

  217. oh this is a good one! hmmm i could make a stamp to sign all my letters/envelopes? i could make pillows for them and put them on my bed!!!

  218. I would love to have my monogram on real calling cards. Business cards are just so….businessy. when making a social contact, it would be good to have old fashioned, beautiful calling cards to share.

  219. What couldn’t I do with a personalized monogram? Business cards, pillows, wall design, stamp my mail– the possibilites are endless. :)

  220. Boring I know, but I would use the monogram for new business cards. I am an accountant and I am tired of the staid looking business card. Also, I might use one for a throw pillow for our guest bedroom comfy chair something ala Kate’s linen and lavender idea which I have been itching to try.

  221. I have been thinking about putting a monogram on the pillows in my living room/piano studio. They need a little makeover, so this would be perfect!

  222. Wow – that’s easy. I would use it for a tattoo. I have tried many times to come up with a monogram on my own, but failed to make anything tattoo-friendly.

  223. I would love to have the pdf. so I could print it off on notecards, seals and address labels so my stationery would always have my personal touch. I love to send hand written notes to friends and family and this would give it that special touch!

  224. I would use the monagrams to personalize my stationary as well as making a transfer for some great throw pillows.

  225. Ohhh cute! I think I would use the monogram for a decorative little pillow on my bed :)

  226. I would def make some cute business cards and I love the pillow idea. Pillows on the bed would be so pretty with our monogram! I can also see it on our guest bedroom wall surrounded by pictures of our family.

  227. Pillows and pillowcases! I’ve always thought monogrammed pillowcases looked great on beds.
