DIY Monogrammed Phone Wallpaper

Like any true Southern girl I love my monograms. In the last year or so I have truly fallen head over heels with anything monogrammed. I have a monogrammed purse, necklace, earrings, planner...well the list goes on!

I was looking around Pinterest to see if I could find any DIY wallpapers...I was surprised that I only found one. Unfortunately I had issues with one of the steps and could not go any farther. I believe it may have been because the directions were for Mac and Adobe Acrobat, which I only have Adobe Reader and Windows. So I sat there playing around for about an hour and HELLO, the light bulb went off.  

A few days ago I found an awesome little doohickey on my computer which is Windows version of screenshoot-ing, the snipping tool. I might be super late on this marvelous little tool, but it made my journey to a super chic monogrammed wallpaper very easy.

Now I have an android phone but I am sure this will work with any phone. So just follow along and in no time you will have a great custom made monogrammed wallpaper for your phone!
