NEED DECORATING HELP ASAP

OK,
So I'm hanging up the wall letters today....
Her name is Chelsea...should I do it all on one straight line or one up and one down etc...
It looks cuter one up one down, but harder to read since its a long name....

ETA: They are the letter plaques from cavas, 8x8 square..

WWYD????

Re: NEED DECORATING HELP ASAP

Ok really - is ANYONE going to walk into her room that doesn't KNOW her name ??? - BTW I like that name !! -

Those things are strictly for decoration, not to remind you what you named your kid !!!

I'd hang them the way you think they look best decoratively (sp?) -
