DIY Wooden Baby Blocks

Hello There! 

I saw this idea on Pinterest and thought it was such a cute idea to add a little something special to a Baby's nursery. It would be a great Baby Shower gift or if you need an activity as you count down the days to delivery!

You will need...
Wood Blocks
5-6 Pieces of different Scrap Booking paper to cover all sides of the blocks
Letter Stickers
Mod Podge
Glue Stick (they have an "extreme" one now that can be used for wood projects)
Sponge Brush
Sandpaper
**I found all these supplies at Michael's Craft Store, my whole purchase was under $20!!

1. Take a wood block and trace it on each piece of scrapbook paper. 5 per the patterned pages and 10 for the solid page (I used the solid color 2x on each block). Then, cut out the squares. :-)

3. After all the squares are cut out, sand the blocks. I made it so that the corners of the blocks were a little bit more rounded, that's why I traced the squares first because I knew when I sanded them, each block would come out a little bit differently. 

4. Take the paper squares and glue a different piece of paper on each side of the blocks. Some pieces of the paper will be bigger than the blocks, trim down as needed. 

5. Add stickers to spell out words, a name or the alphabet!

6. Once the glue is dry, mod podge the sides of the blocks one by one. I left one side undone at first to allow the block to sit and dry.

                                                                   And you're done!

The blocks look so cute added to Mason's dresser! Even though the Mod Podge is Non-Toixic, I decided to leave these as a decoration and not toys (I cant imagine that the Mod Podge tastes very good).

Let me know if you have any questions, happy crafting!
