"Boo" Blocks

It was so much fun but I didn't realize how tiring crafts make you. I love crafts and it was nice to take a break from sewing and to do more crafty things.

Here is my supplies needed. It is really inexpensive which is one of the best parts.
Supply List:
  • Desired paper
  • Stickers/what you want to decorate with
  • Ribbon
  • Hot glue gun
  • Mod Podge
  • Desired sized wood blocks  {best thing to do is go to Home Depot and look in the scap bins, find yourself a piece of wood. decide what size,my blocks are 4X3.5X1.5. They will cut the wood there for you.} Price = $0.54
  • Letter stamps and craft paint{or you can use vinyl lettering}
  • Sandpaper

  1. I cut the scapbook paper to the right sizes
  2. Then I Mod Podged the paper onto the wood. { I put paper on everything except the bottom}
The blocks should start looking like this, here is side #1 of the block

3. Once the paper was all on I sanded the edges of the paper to distress and antique the blocks
4. Then I decorated the blocks how I wanted. {There are so many things you can do to decorated, NO LIMITS}
