• Everybody loves monograms. A monogram is one of
  the prime gifts you could ever receive for a
  certain reason or occasion say as a wedding gift,
  for your birthday or during Christmas. The
  biggest challenge with monograms is the
  understanding of the right decorum for this
  artistic work. The following guidelines will
  provide the knowledge on how to sculpt foolproof
  monograms.

Personalize the motif

• Make the mark personal as if its your best
  stature, you can even engrave it on your best
  outfits. Remember that clients rarely return
  monogrammed goodies unless they are defective.

Pick the right style that suits an individuals
name

• A monogram combines the initials of a name and
  there are different styles in this regard
• First, we have single- lettered monograms. This
  style is mostly applicable to single individuals
  or couples who happen to have a similar last
  name. For instance, Shawn Kelly and Marion Kelly
  (couple) in this case the initial K is taken.
• Secondly are the two- lettered monograms for
  persons who lack middle names and couples whose
  last names are different. Take an example of Mark
  Gerald or Mary Jane and Joe Hannington (couple).

• The third style is for three- lettered monograms.
  It is used for those with three full names like
  Kim Norah Smith.
• Falling under the fourth style are the name or
  phrase monograms. The style is chosen for items
  that take a particular phrase or when denoting a
  family/group name. Several letters are used in
  these cases.
• The fifth category is the icon monograms that are
  used to display famous characters. These icons
  take a distinctive style, mainly, digital prints
  and are black in color.

Choose the appropriate color

• Sometimes, the color choice of a monogram depends
  on the item at stake. Clothes are embroidered
  with monograms while taking the thread color into
  consideration.

7
The font style

• The font style to be used depends on the number
  of letters that will make up the monogram. For
  items that are monogrammed with a single initial,
  the font size needs to be big enough for
  visibility. Those that accommodate many letters
  like family names may require a medium sized
  font.

8
Choose the most suitable monogram frames

• The monogram frames need not to contradict the
  color and texture of the monogram. For instance,
  a highly decorated monogram requires an
  unscrupulous frame. Framing should not be hard
  and as an artisan, you should feel free to
  experiment things. There are different framing
  styles including but not limited to Beach style,
  Industrial, Traditional, Contemporary, Modern,
  Asian, and Victorian.
• If you are looking forward to doing great
  crafting, there you have the monogramming
  ultimate guide. All the best!
