$10 DIY Activity for Your Next Baby Shower

Recently I had the pleasure of attending a friend's baby shower. I debated over what I should give her. I wanted to give her something meaningful that she and her child would enjoy. While pinning the morning away, waiting on my car to be serviced, I came across the most wonderful pin on Pinterest, DIY Alphabet Blocks. It was the cutest idea found on the blog Mod Podge Rocks, (and by the way Mod Podge does rock.) Given that the Room of the Month for March's Pinterest Room Challenge is the kids room, I thought this would be perfect. I'd make something that was both fun to play with and decorative for a child's space. This project was both simple and easy to do, creating a fun activity for all, kids and adults at the shower.
Materials:
Sand and Prep the 2x2
Measure and cut to 1.5 inches
Sand rough edges
Now its time to cut all the scrapbooking paper to size so that it can be glued to the blocks.
And that's it! Set up the DIY table at your party.
This is not a task of perfection. This is an activity of love. So there are no bad blocks, only bad paint brushes, and paint, and stickers.
That line that you were supposed to be painting within was always crooked
He or she will look at these blocks one day, painted all funny sitting on his or her dresser and know they were painted with love.
Enjoyed the project?
