Valentine's Block

A few weeks ago my Aunt Tanis and I had a Craft Day. I recently introduced her to the world of craft blogs and her head almost exploded. She runs her own cake shop and makes AMAZING cakes! Just because I like to brag, go HERE to take a look.

Back to the point, On our Craft Day we made lots of fun wood blocks. Here is what I did with a few of them....

Recipe:

1. Cut a piece of 4x4 wood from the hardware store
 (approx. $10) into lots of 4 inch blocks.

2. Sand your blocks

3. Paint your blocks (we painted our several different colors)

4. Decorate! I added a pink vinyl heart and a ribbon (from Hobby Lobby)

It was really easy to make and a great inexpensive decoration for Valentine's Day! Come back next week to see what else I made with my wood blocks!

  3. Love this! I am so going to try it. I recently found craft blogs, too; it's hard to stop blog hopping long enough to make something.

  4. How cute! I've never been one to decorate for holidays (except for Christmas) and I think after reading the craft-blog world for almost a year now, I need to just jump in and start decorating with all these cute crafty things. This may be a good first project. Thanks for sharing.
