Materials

  • Cardboard or wooden letter (8–10 inches tall)
  • Assorted pasta shapes (bow ties, shells, wheels, rigatoni – about 40 pieces total)
  • Acrylic paint (60ml in your chosen color)
  • Paintbrush
  • Hot glue gun or strong craft glue

Instructions

  • Arrange your pasta shapes on the letter before gluing to plan your design. Then mix up the types for an interesting texture.
  • Glue each pasta piece securely onto the letter, filling every space. Let it dry completely.
  • Once dry, paint the entire letter with your chosen color, covering all the pasta evenly.
  • Allow the paint to dry, then display your pasta letter on a shelf or hang it on the wall.
  • For a fun twist, you can sprinkle a bit of glitter or add a metallic finish for extra shine!
