Need a cute Easter decoration? Well, no problem. All you need is...
The whole process is really simple. You just paint the blocks whatever color you picked out. You will need a couple coats if you don't want the wood grain to show. The paint dries pretty fast so you can get it done in one day, but be patient and don't paint another coat too soon.
Blocks - .99$ each block
11 wooden blocks - you can use whatever size you like. I used smaller ones about 2x2.
Acrylic Paint - I used a wild orchid purple and I used the Americana brand
1 sponge brush
Letters - I just bought a per-colored bag that had 2 of every letter because you need 2 E, A, and P.
1 Glue Gun
1 Glue Gun

Well you have the color and texture desired glue your letters on! If you can't find pre-color letters you can easily buy blank ones and just paint those too. I loved the look of the different colored letter, blue, pink, yellow and green.
Everything here can be bought at Michaels for fairly cheap.
Blocks - .99$ each block
Brush - .75 $
Letters - 2.50$
Paint - 1.99$
Endless Fun and Enjoyment - Priceless :)
And on Wensday I am doing my first giveaway. So remember to enter.
Hmmmm....I might have to try this. Emma loves to paint stuff so I think she would have a great time with this.
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute. I don't have anywhere near (well actually none) enough seasonal decorations. Maybe we'll make these for our next girl's night activity!
ReplyDeletevery cute... and simple too!
ReplyDeletethese are great - my kids love to paint as long as you're not particular about them getting it on stuff (they paint mostly naked).
ReplyDeletelove the moose story (my nickname is Moose, but I don't eat lilacs - they're too beautiful and smell divine).
I'm impressed. I'm about as crafty as putting cardboard ears on a bear and calling him a rabbit.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute! I might have to try that with Kyan!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering where to find wood blocks! Chris' dad made the last ones for me. I had checked at both JoAnns and wal-mart and they didn't have them. Now I know that Michael's is the answer. Thanks!
ReplyDelete♥ Cute!
ReplyDeleteNow this is really cute...I'll have to do one for G'daughter...better yet she can help me with it...she's far more talented than I, and she's just 8...pretty Baby Girl by the way!!!
ReplyDeletethanks for stopping in to see me. I love making new friends!

What a cute idea, and your daughter is just precious. I just love baby girls as you can see from my blog.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog, the moose would have freaked me out. The largest animal we have around here are white tail deer, they don't get near that big and are way to skiddish to come up on the porch.
Thanks for visiting my blog, come back often. I just love seeing where people are from and what they have to say.
Super cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words and help. I am the same way, if I dont eat I get sick. This is a crazy approach for me since I usually did not eat too much before I was pregnant. Visit anytime and thanks again!

ReplyDeleteDid you see the article on Airbourne..I hope you saved your reciepts! How is Curtis's new job working out? PS here is the link http://abcnews.go.com/Health/ColdFlu/story?id=4380374&page=1
That is so cute. My kids would love to do that and it looks great.
ReplyDeletethat is really cute. thanks for sharing your crafty idea!
ReplyDeleteWell the someone is sueing them just because they called it a "miracle" cure and they are sueing because they didnt do a study to prove it was a miracle. So basically it was a poor choice of words and someone is trying to make a buck because of that. There have been many studies and it does prove and has shown that airbourne does help boost your immune system and help your body continue to build one. So it is not considered a "cold remedy" but more of a dietry supplement because it helps your body with vitamins and such. Hope this helps
ReplyDeleteThose are seriously, so cute :D
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Hope Lucy is behaving herself :)
ReplyDeleteWOW, I really love that. It doesn't even look too difficult for me. Fantastic idea!!
ReplyDeleteThat's really cute!
ReplyDeleteOK--great ideas! You are too much. I'm feeling a little lame. I thought getting those plastic eggs and putting jelly beans in them was creative. You've inspired me!
