For an enrichment activity some of the girls in my ward taught us how to make these adorable blocks!
They are really simple and you can personalize it so many different ways!!
Here is what I did.....
~We got 2x2 in blocks of wood, you can get them anywhere from home depot to hobby lobby!
~Next we sanded the edges so they weren't sharp
~Get some scrapbook paper that you like and cut it in 1 3/4" squares
(I used 6 blocks so I had to cut out 36 squares)
~Then I took just a little acrylic paint and painted all the edges.
Here comes the fun part....MOD PODGE :)
~Take a foam brush and paint the block one square at a time and place the paper on the side you applied the mod podge then paint over the paper and let it sit o dry and move on to the next block.
~When they are all done and dried I took scrapbook letter stickers and spelled out my baby's name.
What a fun and cute little decoration for you or to give as a gift!
Happy Crafting! :)
