My Name Is ____ And I Am A Monogramaholic

Yes, it's true. If you haven't figured out by now, I am OBSESSED with monograms! "If it's not monogrammed, is it really even yours?!" My obsession with monogramming has carried over into all of my stuff for my dorm! (OBVIOUSLY!) I have a wooden monogram for my wall, monogrammed towels, and even a monogram on my lamp! One of the best things to do, whether you're a monogramaholic or not, is monogram your towels that you will be using in your dorm bathroom! Whether it's a suite-style (like mine) or you share a bathroom with the entire floor, you don't want someone accidentally using your towels! Especially if you're a "save a trip to the laundry room, use your towels more than once" kinda girl like me, the thought of other people using my towels grosses me out! Especially if I'm going to reuse them! With monogrammed towels, there is no excuse for a "mix-up." So take my advice, monogram everything!! There's no doubt that it's yours! 
And the great thing about it, is most of the stuff is totally DIY! (I have a monogram machine and a Cricut available to do most of my stuff, but if you don't, most craft stores (Hobby Lobby, Michael's, etc.) have iron-on letters that you can put on almost anything!

    1. Hey Sarah! So glad I'm not the only one out there that's obsessed ;) The cricut is actually my cousin's so I'm not sure what cartridges she uses. I know she got hers when they first came out so I'm thinking that she downloaded her font package for it online through a 3rd party (which you sadly can't do anymore). If it helps any, the font pictured on the lamp is Vine (all capital letters, though), and you can find this pretty cheap for an embroidery machine, but I'm not so sure about a cricut.
