Today I want to how I made my Monogrammed Dollar Store Eyeglass Case.
Have you noticed that monograms are a hot trend? Monograms are everywhere: fashion, home decor and jewelry to name a few. It makes sense. Why carry or wear items with the designer’s monogram or logo when it can be our own personalization. One problem: to have an item personalized with your monogram is going to cost extra. Solution: do it yourself!
I bought this plain eyeglass case at Dollar Tree.
Using my Silhouette Cameo, the Vine Monogram font (purchased font) and some leftover glitter vinyl, I cut out my monogram and ironed it onto my $1 eyeglass case. See my tutorial here where I wrote about using glitter vinyl instead of rhinestones. One important step to remember before cutting a monogram: reverse the image!
If you don’t own the Vine Monogram font, the Silhoutte Online Store has monogram files for 50 cents. Also there are free monogram fonts available for download such as Monogram KK font from dafont.com.
As for how my monogrammed eyeglass is holding up, it’s been banging around in my purse for about two weeks and it’s still looks good. If it only lasts through the summer, I’m happy with that. After all, it only cost $1!

This is so cute. I wish I had a cameo! The monogram is just adorable. Where do you get the monogram font?
Jeanie says
Thanks Emily! I think the font was from font brothers.

Hi, I think its a new fashion thing. I’ve seen some mannequins with sock like things around their legs but they don’t actually go down (Like that Avril Lavageneagese thing with the arm sock). But I’ve never seen anyone wear them and I’m not really all that into the whore look.Kawaii store

I did not pursue it because I lack of interest, I wanted to have a title as a designer, but it is so hard to finish a piece. You have to dedicate an effort in time in making one. I hope that I can have the talent as same as yours.Matterhorn clothing wholesale

Great advice. Layering is essential when you live in the mountains. We also try to make sure all of our clothes will go with several different pieces, that way the clothing can be worn more times without seeming the same.Juwelier online Shop

At its core, fashion is deeply personal, a form of self-expression that allows individuals to articulate their identity and mood without uttering a single word. The choices one makes about what to wear are imbued with stories and significances, a complex amalgamation of influences—be it a rebellion against the mainstream, a homage to a beloved era, or a nod to a cherished culture. This personal aspect of fashion transforms clothing and accessories into extensions of one’s persona, enabling a visual communication that transcends language barriers and cultural divides. It’s a realm where creativity knows no bounds, where a simple garment can be reimagined in countless ways, offering a canvas for innovation and personal storytelling.
