Family Wood Blocks

Hello! 

 The sun is out and the kids are outside playing and here I am on the computer!  I just had to post this craft that I finished yesterday.

  Please excuse the crappy pictures.  I let my older kids take my camera out of town (I know, what was I thinking!), so I had to use a really cheapo camera that my daughter should have taken with her, but instead she has my good camera, arrgh!!


I bought the vinyl like 3 years ago from a friend and it's just been sitting around.  Finally I got motivated to paint it!


For this set, I used coordinating Scrapbook paper and mod podged it on the blocks, except the long one.  I just painted that one of my favorite colors:  Americana- "Spa Blue."  The "Family" blocks I painted with Martha Stewart's "Wedding Cake."  

I love the Spring colors, don't you?  

I may give this one away, but it will be hard to part with it!  


Hope your day is going great and that you have lots of Sun where you are!!

  3. So cute! It would be perfect to make at a craft night because it could be personalized so easily. I'll be tucking this idea away for the future, thanks Karen. :)
