As I mentioned in last weeks post, I've been trying to get back into the swing of things, {a.k.a. updating my blog}. I love crafting and I got really into blogging right before the birth of my 2nd daughter. Naturally, I thought I could be super mom and I'd have time to juggle 2 kids under 2 and still work on posts.
Yea, I was a little over ambitious.
I still did all these fun crafts, but I NEVER edited the pics and I NEVER got anything posted.
So here we are in 2014. My "newborn" is almost 2 {ahhh!!} and I'm finally getting around to showing you all the fun stuff I made {yippee!!!}
I wasn't sure where to start, I have all these crafts from the past 2 years; every holiday, 4 birthday parties, numerous recipes...
So I thought I'd start with my photo puzzles. Mainly because you can give this gift to ANYONE for ANY occasion. { I made some for my husband's birthday and then made some for the Grandpa's for Father's Day. }
So here is what you need:
* Wood Blocks {I used 1.5in, but you could use any size you want}
* Photos
* Paint {any color you'd like}
* Mod Podge
Trace the outline of the blocks on the photo - so you know where to cut
Next it's time to paint the blocks - I chose Blue :)
Since the blocks are all a little different, I wanted to make sure that the photo squares I cut matched the blocks that I measured. It's not necessary, but it can help if your blocks aren't exactly the same size (which mine weren't)
Glue your photos (one at a time) on all 4 sides of the blocks.
Glue... Dry... Done!
HAPPY CRAFTING!!
